Far from the madding crowd

Far from the madding crowd

Found this canyon and climbed to the end of it at dawn. Caught the first rays of sun making firey glow on sandstone beauty, the day still cool from the tattered darkness ... sand cool on my bare toes and birdsong reflecting on the cliff faces in torrents of colorful notes. Everything as still as the most peaceful place on Earth could be. Not a single other soul around except Tim and me.
