  1. Antelope Canyon, Arizona — a slot canyon carved through ~190-million-year-old Navajo sandstone by desert flash floods. Over millennia, water and wind sculpted flowing, wave-like walls; at midday, sunbeams pierce the narrow slots, lighting the stone in glowing orange hues.

  2. 🧊 ICYMI: When an #iceberg splits apart, giant slabs of blue #ice collapse into the #sea, triggering fractures that send #waves across the surrounding #water.

    Recorded at early light in #Ilulissat, #Greenland, Richard Sidey captured the deep creaks and rumbles of a #calving #glacier adjusting its balance.

  10. Chile's Marble Caves are swirling caverns carved into pure marble on the shore of Lake General Carrera. Over 6,000 years, wave action dissolved and polished the stone into smooth blue-and-white curves, and the lake's turquoise water — tinted by glacial flour — reflects onto the walls, bathing them in shifting blue light.
