Photographer's Note
The Wave area is rather small and that what most people come to see and therefore it is busy here even though only limited number of permit people can visit, imagine if it open to all. It would be a zoo and the fragile landmark will be destroyed within days. If you do have chance to visit, there is so much more than just the Wave. Do plan to spend the whole day here if you can to venture out further up or down. The whole area is really breath taking and you can have it all to yourself outside of the Wave.
This area is called Little Wave. We went all the way up to the hill in the background to look down at the overall area. The view of the whole area is really out of this world.

those rocks remind me of melted ice: you know..when you have hazelnuts and cream melting away and mixing each other...but it's rock here!

Hello Way,
As usual, I like a lot your new picture. The colors (and the contrast between the red rock and the blue sky) is absolutly beautiful and the composition is great because the yellow curves on the rock drive the eye toward the horizon.

Hello Way - This is a most spectacular geological formation and I love your saturated colours, such a sight deserves to be show in all its colourful glory. The lines of strata are so clean and crisp and your capture underlines why the formation is called the wave. A mesmerising shot. Warm regards Rosemary

Hello Way,
Wow, what a spectacular landscape!
Very beautifully with the long lines in the rock surface, alternating white and red.
Here we see layers similar to those of the Antelope Canyon (of which lots of pictures have been shown on TE) but now in a wider landscape.
I like the warm colours of this Little Wave under that blue sky.
Best regards, Paul

Beautiful sandstone rock formation showing these curved lines like waves. The red color rocks contrast nicely with the blue sky. Nice troughs have been formed due to the erosion, A breath taking view with sharpness and depth.

A bautiful and clear shot, with extraordinary composition. The repetitive forms of the rocks on the right, the contrsat between deep blue sky and bright clay rock, the clouds which follow the horizon, darkening in the center, the light lines of rock running toward the camera (or away) - and is that a person at left, about a third of the way up? If so, it certainly adds to the sense of enormous scale which is already present. Just a perfect shot.

Hi Way,
this is just spectacular and it is probably the first thing I would like to see if I could pick anything.
The shapes are incredible. The colors as well. Clouds add so much life here and they contrast with the rocky landscape being o fluffy and soft.
Excellent presentation as usual.

One of the most photographed places in the last few years from this part of US...we have wall papers & screensavers highlighting, I guess a portion of it where the patterns are most wavy. This is an amazing place, a creation of nature. I laud you for showing us this wider picture of this place, the striations creating a fine wavy pattern in perspective. Excellent picture!

Hi Way,
First off, I sincerely appreciate your previous response...it's good to know there is some comfort within the TE world. Losing someone close is never an easy thing. I hope I wasn't in the wrong by mentioning it here.
To your photo, what can I say other than 'impressive!' You are fortunate to have been granted access to this beauty, and certainly took full advantage of the opportunity. Seeing your pictures really inspires me get out on the road and head North once again...but it's far too hot right now. :) Rich colors, stunning natural formations and sharp detail...you nailed it! And to think, most people think waves only exist in water!? Enjoy the rest of your weekend. take good care.
Cheers from next door,
Jason
