    Scene notes:

    A desert scene in Canyonlands National Park, Needles district. Heavy clouds are overhead in this late-afternoon scene, and the shadows go over the foreground. In the background, around four tenths of the way up the frame, are the jagged needle-like formations this district is named after. The area around the needles is hike-able after a road that is relatively inaccessible.
