Description
Photograph of the reflection in the water of Montezuma's Well, near Indian cliff dwellings (not visible) in Verde Valley, Arizona, ca.1900. Brush-covered rocky debris rises from the water's edge to meet the vertical wall of the cliff which is reflected in the water. Sunlight shimmers in the water and illuminate the dull, jagged rock of the cliff. A single, round bush stands at the center of the cliff and is reflected faithfully in the water below.
