Yesterday, before the storm

I had the pleasure of meeting Tomkitten for the Great Camera Handoff. My D300 now has a good home. I hope he posts a photo of what he's upgrading from.

On the way back from the rendezvous I stopped at Monticello Dam to check the water level. In better (wetter) times, this outlet is fully covered and has a tremendous whirlpool going on. Water's a bit low for that now.


There is some really interesting geology in that area, too.

1. "Water's a bit low" is an understatement.

I love geology, and those formations are really cool. I am always curious about what forces formed these rocks. I can see the upthrust that caused the sedimentary layers to tilt up----that is a lot of power to do that. Then I look at the couple of thick layers and wonder how those ones formed.

But this is not the Science group......nice photos.

2. On the other hand, the water level is uncomfortably high...

...if you live in Monticello.

3. True, that.
