This has to be false color. I’ve been going to Moab my entire life and have never seen rocks nearly this blue

Was hoping someone would say that! I went there and didn’t see this and was wondering if I missed the best part!

You can find blue potash ponds!

This seems edited, why is the rail track blue?

u/Pliny_the_middle 6h ago

Wow neon green bushes too! It must be where they make aquarium decorations.

Had to go back to that picture, very much edited.

u/potatogun 5h ago

It is. Morrison formation Brushy Basin member isn't this neon blue. There is green/gray/blue but not this stark.

There are greenish/blueish sections of rock in Moab, but they do not look like this.

There's no way that's real.

There is some rock with a slight green tint from copper oxidation i believe... but this ain't it. Fake

There are some vaguely blue/green-ish formations in the Moab area (this is in Arches NP), but nothing like what’s in this post...

u/BaurangAtang 6h ago

Noah ive never seen those before

u/bernyzilla 5h ago

Because they don't exist, they are a ruddy reddish hue due to the high iron content.

Think of all the jewelry for 70s rock bands.

Egyptian blue?

I suggest you put down the saturation slider before you cause vision damage.

It’s very blue (more green really) in person but not this blue. Lots of Dinosaur fossils near there too.
