I've always been fascinated by petroglyphs, thanks for posting this. The very slight application of Simplify is perfect and fits the subject very well. My wife and I once took a tour of the China Lake Naval Base in the Mojave Desert. There you can see over 6,000 petroglyphs in a canyon that is 1.2 miles long. Very impressive and I'm so glad they are protected.

A very nice treatment, and nice to see them in a different environment than I've seen before. Those of you who are into Fractalius -- I wonder how some petroglyphs (probably closeups) would look with that treatment?

Cheryl,
Greetings. The petroglyphs are very cool & Buz Sim adds a nice touch. I've looked at this a few times and my eye is drawn to the lower right where I keep trying to see a laughing face but can't quite make it out. Thanks for posting.
Cheers,
-Michael-

Diane, I tried Fractalius first but I liked the Topaz a little better. Michael, I like the half of a laughing face - I think it's laughing at the view he's getting of the backsides of the 2 little guys
There is a piece of grass on the bottom edge that I should have cleaned up - sorry!

Agree -- my thought of Fractalius was for larger, more isolated petroglyphs without so much context. Just an idle thought -- I as a Mac user, I can't run it so am not familiar with its capabilities. But I see some very cool stuff from it!.

I didn't know about this park. Intersting.

I wonder if the out of the box petroglyphers had their own special rock?

Hi, Gary, I bet they did
