Stopping at Lake Powell
Geza Bodor of Denver, CO
Flying home from California to Denver, I landed at Page, Arizona to wait out weather ahead of us. I tied down my Bonanza for the evening when the sun descended below the cloud deck, providing great illumination of my plane and the beautiful Lake Powell background. The weather moved out by next morning, and we flew home under a clear blue sky that is fine for flying but not so much for photography.
Camera: Nikon D3 with 28-120mm Nikon zoom lens.
The picture was cropped for visual effect and reduced in resolution for upload.
