Rugged rocky formations rise up sharply against a moody sky at The Devil's Backbone in Loveland, Colorado.. The play of light and shadow enhances the texture and shapes of the stones, giving the landscape a dramatic effect. This sedimentary layer from an ancient shoreline was thrust upward and the land was eroded to reveal this craggy structure.
