Horseshoe bend

10th May 2009

I have many little wishes ... one of them was to photograph this bend ... wonderful nature huh ? or amazing River Colorado ? The Colorado river winds much more than thousand miles (1,450 miles) while carving mysterious canyons and takes this magnificent bend ... This is another coolest creation of Mother Earth ! It looks so neat that River Colorado was determined to create a piece of art, with so much of precision she has carved this bend ... it almost looks like a circle !


When I was photographing this bend I had to stand on a red rock keeping my tripod on the tip of it, over the sheer cliff ... a thought passed my head ... that somebody mentioned ... Camera destroys your life !! I know camera makes you poor ... but when I was standing there, completely sunburnt skin, swollen lips due to sun burn, tired and looking shabby, on the edge of life and death, I realized what that someone meant ... if you analyze a bit more there is much deeper meaning to it ...
