The Navajo Power Plant

The sight of this power plant near Page sitting by itself in this unique landscape caught my eye. It stands almost as a man made butte with it's three smoke stacks in front of the distant mesa. It almost seemed surreal as I viewed this scene.

The power plant is quite a juxtaposition...a great wide space, Dave. V

Amazing POV you had you see to really be up high.
The boat is so small and the water is lovely.
Love that rock formation on the other side of the Power Plant.
Great sky ,light and resolution.

Smoking chimneys in the desert - how strange…
Blue water makes for an interesting and beautiful picture, Dave!

An anachronism in plain view. The smoke from the stacks can probably be seen miles away.V

An amazing image. What a contrast between the power plant and the surrounding landscape. Made even better by the river and boat in the foreground. Excellent work Dave! "V"

The power plant stands in stark contrast to the natural beauty of the landscape. Exceptional view and shot, Dave. V
Nick Paoni04-Nov-2015 15:41
The contrast between the beauty of the landscape and the power plant is very powerful, and at the same time disturbing. V

Beautiful landscape capture in wonderful tone and the smokes have added a marvelous industrial mood in great contrast between the nature and the human exsistance, Dave. BV+++++

Certainly an unusual site in this wonderful countryside, a coal fired plant (USA 3rd largest CO2 emitter !)

Such an unexpected sight in this arid landscape! Very pleasing balance in this well-composed image, with a lovely sky, too. V.
joseantonio04-Nov-2015 04:43
you have made a fantastic composition for the image with some lovely contrast of colors and the rock formation in the background. I dind´t know there was such a power plant in the middle of the desert.V
Dennis Hoyne04-Nov-2015 03:23
Wow! What a contrast between the very, very old (the geology) and the new. An outstanding composition! V.
Neil Marcus04-Nov-2015 01:46
A view enhanced by including the sweep of water.
