Through the Window to Hell

This photograph was made at Big Bend National Park, a “Texas-sized” national park that lies in the Southwest Texas. The park encompasses over 800,000 acres and borders on approximately 244 miles of the 1000-miles of the USA-Mexico made by the Rio Grande. Big Bend National Park is considered to be one of the largest, most remote, and least visited national parks in the lower United States. For what it’s worth, it’s not hard to see why- it was 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 C) on the day I made this photograph.
