One of my personal bucket list shots is Horseshoe Bend in Page AZ. I was flying home last week and the pilot announced Page AZ on the left! I was sittting on the correct side of the plane and had a window seat. Grabbed my camera and shot a couple out the window.

Does this count?


Page, AZ:

And the famous Horseshoe Bend:

It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    Oh yeah, that totally counts. That first one shows Page, the Glen Canyon Dam, some of Lake Powell, and Horseshoe Bend all in the same picture. Awesome!! clap.gif

    While not a wall hanger it does a nice job of putting the river, city, etc in perspective. After looking at your image I can see some real photo ops upriver from Horse Shoe Bend.

    Very interesting views that give me a perspective new to me. What are those two built-up areas near the top of the scene....one looks to have a marina involved and the other ( further to the left ) looks to be a small community?

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    thumb.gif Very interesting perspective of Page and Horseshoe Bend. Definitely different than any shots I have of Horseshoe.

    I am not quite interested in exploring the ridge to the North of Horseshoe after seeing your shots. Just what I needed- more places in Page to photograph. eek7.gif

    The first area heading North if Wahweap Marina. The other area a little to the North and West is a housing development called Greenehaven. Some very nice homes in that area with views of Lake Powell.
