Black and white still photograph of Canyon de Chelly, Arizona. Landscape is of an open view (straight on) of rock formations and a river on the canyon floor. Centered in the foreground is a stout, rounded rock formation, with randomly curving layers and crevices. Behind in the midground is a smoothly flowing and somewhat hidden river running horizontally (in view on far right and left sides). Steeper, vertical canyon walls follow along the river, in the background.
