The bays and water-surface features of the Gulf show up in sun glint. Outstanding features of this photograph include 1) the outline of the ancient delta of the combined Brazos and Colorado Rivers; 2) the sweeping escarpment that separates the central Texas hill country from the coastal plain; and 3) reddish soils of the Nueces Plain.
