That is exactly what it looks like it is doing my friend. Pointing to some of the most gorgeous colored rocks with some of the most beautiful formations. How ever you found it, it certainly makes for a beautiful picture. Love the tree, the the layes of colors from front to back and then to the blue of the sky. Breath taking sight for sure. Beautiful work my friend. Outstanding. #9169149
