So underexposed that the colors came out weird with Photoshop, but it still works as a b&w. It's the Great Unconformity, where the Tapeats Sandstone rests on the Vishnu Schist.

Tapeats Sandstone resting with profound unconformity on eroded schists of the Vishnu Formation. The original slide was grossly underexposed, so the colors ended up real weird when I tried to brighten it. It still works as a b&w, tho.
