Wow - this scene looks really nice from up there. I am used to always looking up at these formations. I'd love to shoot this whole area from up there sometime.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Incredible. What a view.

 

[Jim Dockery]

Thanks for the great view! Love the greens - I take it this was back in the day shot on Velvia?

 

[Bob]

This is spectacular Doug. Why didn't you not bring this last night?

 

[Ben Egbert]

Thanks, Bob. I'll bring a bunch of aerial images next time.

Thanks, Jim. Vivid reds and greens are telltale indicators of Fuji Velvia 50.

Incredible. What a view.

Thanks, Jameel. I love getting aerial views of the landscape. I learn so much more about the geology from up there than being confined to the ground.

And you did this the hard way. These days the drones make this much easier.

Thanks, Alan. You can hire a pilot from the airport in Page, AZ and get aerial views of the Goosenecks, Lake Powell, Monument Valley, Marble Canyon,, Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness, north and south Coyote Buttes, etc.

Douglas,
This is so awesome! I'm gonna have to look into this more next time i'm out there.

I am always wishing I had drones at my disposal, Jameel when I was teaching my geology classes. That would have been spectacular.

Douglas,

Thanks, Sunny. The nice thing about an airplane is that you don't get hassled like you do with drones. It is a lot more expensive however.

This is super cool Doug! I like the little bit of shadows showing as they help give depth.
