Shooting the Curl - a photo on Flickriver

Shooting the Curl

            Now with a 0.6 mile marked trail, finding the Fire Wave in Nevada's Valley of Fire State Park is a cinch on an easy 15-minute walk.

A slightly different perspective of the Fire Wave, looking westward. I was fortunate to be the lone sunset photographer and during the frenetic 5 minutes after the sky started to go off, I was hobbling all around the steep sandstone to get as many different angles of this amazing little slice of geology. This viewpoint provided the best sunset colors.
