Bentonite Hills

Apr 6 2026 | By: Jim Zuckerman

The Bentonite Hills in northern Utah are spectacular. The ash sediments from ancient volcanos are vibrantly colored reflecting various chemical compositions -- for example, red is iron oxide. I took this shot with my drone from an altitude of 230 feet. The settings were 1/40, f/2.8, and 100 ISO. The colors in the hills are most beautiful and deeply saturated when photographed in diffused light. This was 20 minutes before sunrise.
