First Light Over the Labyrinth
San Rafeal Swell, Utah
Perched above a sprawling maze of clay hills and dry washes, the rim of this remote desert plateau catches the first kiss of daylight. The soft purples of settle over the land, revealing delicate textures carved by wind and time. In this seldom-seen corner beyond Canyonlands, silence reigns and the land feels as ancient as the sky is wide. Photo © copyright by Joseph Rossbach.
