Sentinels in soft stone, the spires, pinnacles, hoodoos and rock towers of Bryce Canyon, all carved intricately by water and wind, stand stately and brilliantly in the diffused natural light of thin, high cloud cover. Such light diffuses itself around the landscape and into shadows, softening the otherwise harsh contrast innate to the desert setting, and rendering a pastel-painted look to the scene.
