Finding Fault

For scale, Lake Powell—shown here as a small strip of water at the bottom of the frame—is more than 166feet (50m) below full pool, where only the darker rock at the top of the frame would show. The Lake is only about 45ft (5m) above deadpool, which chokes off power generation and downstream flow. Full pool is 483ft (178m) above the Colorado River, so the first explorers would have seen an additional 317ft (128m) of section hereabouts, now submerged. Mind-boggling.

 

Light, shadow, line, form, texture. Hardly any color in the original, so i figure we’re getting enough art without it here. This is the 12 Pro Max portrait lens, 65mm full frame equivalent.

Happy Mono Monday!
