Shallow Shoreline on Lake Mojave / Colorado River

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

This is the shallow water on the eastern shoreline of Lake Mojave on the Arizona side of the Colorado River. This was lensed with a high resolution 60mpx Hassleblad Camera out of the cockpit of my bushplane as I flew along the desert next to the river.

I love the different colors of green and blue water and the rippling effect from the wind along the surface of the river. If you look close enough under the water you can see fish and rivulets where strong water drainage from rainstorms cut a path into the floor of the river as they flow from the mountains surrounding the river into the lake.

Taken in the later winter you can see the purplish colors of the sage brush on the shore. I hope you enjoy it!

Yehaw!!
