Not a cloud in the sky, for an hour... But here comes a cloud, and here comes № 5 !
Nontheless, Amtrak's westbound California Zephyr rolls around the bend at Cisco, running about two hours late. The stainless steel consist is blending in perfectly with the rugged mountains of the Utah desert.
This horseshoe bend is called 한반도 which translates to Korea peninsula. Took me quite a while to get it but I guess the middle part does look abit like Korea on the map if you stare long and hard enough 😂 in other news..
Horseshoe Bend is the name for a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located near the town of Page, Arizona, in the United States
Nice reflections in a bend along a tiny river making it's last curves before reaching the Atlantic Ocean.

The classic shot above the bend. It's a 1000 foot drop at the edge. I think I got close enough.

I held a moment in my hand, brilliant as a star, fragile as a flower, a tiny sliver of one hour. I dripped it carelessly, Ah! I didn't know, I held opportunity. Hazel Lee

Page, Arizona
The clouds provided by a recently passed storm soften the light at the Horseshoe Bend created by the erosion of the Colorado River. The site is located near Page, AZ and is upstream of the Grand Canyon and shortly downstream of the the Glen Canyon Dam that forms Lake Powell. As with other sites, people endanger themselves by doing such things as sitting on the edge of the cliffs which rise about 1,000 ft above the river.
The vantage point is so remarkable in allowing the visitor to view the remarkable symmetry of the canyon created by the river. I think that interest is also added in that the outside side of the canyon is just high enough to allow yo to see the top of the plateau on the opposite side.
I considered removing the boats on the right, but they were in fact there at the time and do provide some size perspective.
The place has become extremely popular, but its popularity is justified.

Every time I drive along the promenade in Kirkcaldy, Fife, I keep thinking that the railings have a lovely curved shape. Well today I actually managed to photograph them

Horseshoe Bend near Page Arizona.
I took this photo back when you could find a little solitude there. I and two friends were the only ones there this night. Since then this location has turned into nothing less than a madhouse.

The fifth stop on my recent roadtrip was the Horseshoe Bend of the Colorado River, just outside of Page, Arizona and only about a 10 minute drive from Antelope Canyon. There's a parking area just off the highway, and then a short hike takes you to this viewpoint.
A star tail over my bike and camp in Big Bend. I had bikepacked up a rough desert road to a desert campsite. Had all my camping, photography gear plus 8 liters of water strapped to the bike . Let the camera run all night to get this.

Oxbow Bend sees a large number of roadside wildlife watchers, so we enjoyed getting above it all. You can barely see the Snake River left of Signal Mountain in this image. The mountains at distant right are, of course, the Grand Tetons.

This is another version of sunset I shot on the last day of my SW trip. It was merged by four vertical shots.

Long-headed poppy is one of the naturalised plants from Europe. It was first found in 1961 in Tokyo are.
I knew Horseshoe Bend would be a popular spot, and as I arrived the parking lot was overflowing with cars.
A continuous line of tourists had formed, streaming back and forth toward the bend... looking like some kind of religious pilgrimage was in progress out here in the extreme heat of the desert.
My friend and fellow photographer Bill McIntosh was on his way up from LA, and as soon as he arrived we took our place in the line and began the half mile descent toward the river.
When I finally arrived, I could now experience what I had seen in pictures so many times. It is impossible to describe in photos exactly how steep the edge of this drop-off was.... it is something that needs to be seen in person.
Bill took up a spot right in the front of the bend, but it was getting so crowded that I didn't think I could fit another tripod in there.... so I wandered off looking for a good angle. That is when I saw this little shrub clinging to life at the edge, and I thought it might look good as a foreground. This is definitely not the classic shot, but I think it works too.
As the sun sank below the horizon, the clouds lit up with oranges and reds, and cheers erupted from the crowd.
It was the perfect start to my trip.
