Petrified Log atop Bentonite Pedestal stock photo

Petrified Log atop Bentonite Pedestal Petrified wood is formed when dead trees are buried by layers of sediment. The logs soak up groundwater and silica from volcanic ash and over time are crystallized into quartz. Different minerals create the colors seen in the logs. This petrified log is standing atop a "pedestal" of softer rock. Eventually the softer bentonite will erode and the log will fall. This picture was taken at Blue Mesa in Petrified Forest National Park near Holbrook, Arizona, USA. Arid Climate Stock Photo

It's a win-win, and it's why everything on iStock is only available royalty-free — including all Arid Climate images and footage.
What kinds of royalty-free files are available on iStock?
Royalty-free licenses are the best option for anyone who needs to use stock images commercially, which is why every file on iStock — whether it’s a photo, illustration or video clip — is only available royalty-free.
How can you use royalty-free images and video clips?
From social media ads to billboards, PowerPoint presentations to feature films, you're free to modify, resize and customize every asset on iStock — including all Arid Climate images and footage — to fit your projects.
