| Saddlehorn Hamlet in Black & White |
This pueblo is known as Saddlehorn Hamlet and it's the next major stop along the Sand Canyon Trail after the Unnamed Ruin. As you can probably guess, the pueblo got its name from the unique rock formation above it. This area is composed mostly of sandstone, which makes for some really cool shapes in the rocks. The soft, porous nature of the sandstone in the area made these somewhat iconic alcoves possible for the Ancestral Puebloans to build their homes in.
This image started out as 6 individual frames that were "stitched" together in Photoshop and made for an enormous vertical image. However the sky and immediate foreground were largely uninteresting, so I opted to go with the square crop on it and lose those areas.
I've got a couple more images from Sand Canyon to come, then it's on to the Mesa Verde images!!!
