Description
Lake Powell's sapphire waters sparkle in undulating canyons of burnt orange rock, its myriad patterns of stone and water made vibrant by pure, lucid desert light. Arizona photographer Gary Ladd celebrates Glen Canyon National Recreation Area's compelling sandstone beauty--both the lake and its 96 quiet, trickling side canyons.
