Captivating Sunset Views at Lake Powell

April 23, 2025

Sunset on Lake Powell. A few years back my wife and I went 40 miles up stream (Colorado River) and camped for three days. During sunset the red sandstone turns to a rich saturated red. The visual sensory excitement just overwhelms as the cliffs turn an Iron oxide deep red. It is absolutely overwhelming and beautiful. In these photographs we were heading back to our camp. I took two cameras a Canon 40D and a Hasselblad film camera on the trip. The bow of the boat photo was taken with the digital 40D.
