Metamorphosed Sedimentary Rocks
The vertical rock with the white lichen on it is a metamorphosed sandstone. On either side of it are layers of metamorphosed mudstone. The mudstone contains softer minerals than the sandstone, so they are deformed by the pressure of metamorphosis to show a fabric that looks like parallel laminae, while the sandstone looks unaffected.
