A heavily eroded, clearly stratified mudstone mound with a small tree on top takes up the right-center part of this contrasty image. Various low-growing bushy plants spread out across the bottom/foreground, with a more prominent ridge and larger trees taking up the upper far right. The sky is featureless, and we can barely see a sloping ridge or mountain at center left in the hazy distance.
