Lake Powell Remembered

Page, Arizona

With the water levels of the Colorado River and Lake Powell in serious jeopardy, I went back looking for images of Lake Powell from our tour of the lake in 2015. As shown in this image, the lake was well below full pond at that time.

I love these colors! Seeing these layers and details is really fascinating! Great nature documentary work that powerfully describes these serious changes. V

Wonderful subtle tones in those wind-sculpted rock formations and fascinating to observe a band of white sandstone above the dropping water level...outstanding capture with that rewarding azure sky to top it off....V

The lakes created by those dams are stunning and you captured it beautifully. The low water levels are scary and maybe the desert wasn’t meant to be inhabited. V

A beautiful scene from this pretty area. So sad to learn the water is down so low now. V

A wonderful image from this important lake.

a stronfg visual statement...even back then the water level seemed down a bit, judging by the layer of bleached rock..

very nice work with that light and lovely tones.V.

A nice image going back to 2015 showing water level nice to compare it to the level today. Nice sharp photograph and a fantastic blue sky. The soft water reflection are very nice in this scene. Vote+

Superb textures and colors of the rocks formation. V.

Beautiful capture, Dave. The southwest and northwest is in a terrible drought. We have half the moisture as normal in our area.

Beautiful shot of this rock formation framed by the water and sky. Very nice clarity. "V"

Great capture of this beautiful scene. It's shocking and quite worrisome to hear of the current situation. V.
