Red Canyon River Silhouetted in Desert Heat
by Bryan Lester
Brick-red sandstone walls rise steeply from a wide valley floor near Abu Dhabi, framing a dark river that cuts through the arid landscape. The early afternoon sun hangs high, casting the canyon edges into deep silhouette while the sky above burns with intense, bleached light. A visible heat haze shimmers across the water's surface, blurring the horizon where the river meets the distant dunes. The rough texture of the eroded rock contrasts with the smooth, glassy sheen of the water below. Fine dust hangs in the air, softening the sharp lines of the cliffs against the bright sky. at the edge is the faint, wavering distortion of the distant canyon rim where the heat rises.
