The Wild West - a photo on Flickriver

The Wild West

            The buttes of the Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park are icons of the Wild West.
They have been the background of many movies  such as John Ford’s Stagecoach with John Wayne and have had bit parts in Easy Rider, 2010 Space Odyssey, The Eiger Sanction and Forest Gump.
You will see vehicles  on the road in the foreground. If you had looked a short while before this photo was taken, you would have seen my red Toyota proceeding  in a cloud of dust along the road.
This is the view from the visitor's center.
I would like to return and spend much more time to see and capture the beauty of the park.
