Description
One of the most striking features of the Mojave Desert in the American Southwest are the pillowy shaped rock formations and the strange looking plants that surround them. Heat and pressure over thousands of years transformed sedimentary rock into an entirely new kind of rock called gneiss.
These gneiss formations surrounded by yucca were photographed at the Live Oak area in Joshua Tree National Park, California.
