Le Horseshoe Bend (« la courbe du fer à cheval ») est le nom d'un méandre du fleuve Colorado situé à 6 km au sud de la ville de Page en Arizona et correspondant à un ancien plateau érodé.
Le méandre se trouve un peu en aval du barrage de Glen Canyon et du lac Powell.
Un point de vue situé sur l'U.S. Route 89 (en) permet d'avoir une bonne vue d'ensemble du méandre.
... dopo un primo tentativo, effettuato in modo sconsiderato alle 13.00 sotto un sole a picco e temperature degne di un buon forno a micro onde, prima di sera ci muoviamo nuovamente da Page e raggiungiamo l' Horseshoe bend ...
Superato il breve dislivello che dal parcheggio porta al nostro obiettivo lo spettacolo che si disvela difronte ai nostri occhi è di quelli da togliere il fiato ...
la maestosità degli spazi e la profondità del canyon a picco sull'ansa del fiume Colorado sovrastano e privano di importanza la gran quantità di turisti che, come piccole formiche, si muovono lungo i bordi della cengia ...
poi, lentamente, il sole ci saluta, ed il cielo, che si specchia nelle calme acque del fiume, si veste dei suoi colori più belli ...
Another one from our trip to the Palouse.
I am still having issues with Flickr. It's very slow and I keep getting bad pandas. For those of you who don't know, I found it interesting that the bad panda image came from someone's post five years ago, and it now has almost 633,000 views because it was used by Flickr. Here it is: www.flickr.com/photos/toyokazu/8644384737/

Horseshoe Bend is the intimate Grand Canyon experience. It overlooks one of the most spectacular views on the Colorado River. The overlook is 4,200 feet (1,300 m) above sea level, and the Colorado River is at 3,200 feet (980 m) above sea level, making it a 1,000-foot (300 m) drop. Went there four times at sunrise, sunset, cloudy day and sunshine day, the picture was taken in a cloudy day. The light was soft, not so strong, loving the soft sun’s ray illuminating canyon’s twisting sandstone cliffs. I posted photos before, this photo was not including the sky, just the soft light on the cliff rocks and river…
Explore a meandering, horseshoe-shaped section of the Colorado River known as Horseshoe Bend, must join tour to visit those areas. “Horseshoe bend and slot canyon tour” at sunset time, this section of horseshoe bend is the private area, getting there were like on the kind of “horse” wagon, up and down on the road, sunshine, raining, hail, sunshine... what a weather! Arrived another side of horseshoe bend, like that quiet feeling facing to spectacular desert landscape shaped by wind and water.

I considered posting one more snow image, but instead decided to go into my archives and post something very different for me. I took this while on a road trip around Vancouver Island last September. I can pretty much bet you didn't know this was mine when you first saw it :)
I love to drive in the country in Autumn--I just can't wait to see what is around the bend!!! HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A GREAT WEEK SO FAR----I AM BUSY TODAY--CATCH YOU LATER--THANKS FOR TAKING TIME TO STOP IN!

This is a stream which comes off of Cooks Inlet in Alaska just a little ways down from the lodge. The water level and how far you can go is controlled by the high and low tides. In this image, the bend in the stream can be seen in the distance to the left
I know I have not posted a picture for literally ages but as you all know, life can get busy. After 2 years of hiatus, traveling for work and conferences is back to almost pre-covid normal so I was finally able to go to a conference in Las Vegas. Knowing how close Grand Canyon is, I didnt miss the chance to drive there and visit this breathtaking natural wonder. More pictures of the Canyon will follow, with more detail about its size and vastness, but here is probably the most photographed spot of the Grand Canyon, the famous Horseshoe Bend in Page, AZ.
