Not necessarily my best photo work, but I was limited by my seat and angle in the helicopter. This was the year of big rains in the southwest and the desert turned this lovely shade of green. Was traveling with a class from ASU that was going to learn to measure snowpack for water managment.…

Yesterday was focused on just the small fall on the right. Here is the whole Goðafoss horseshoe. (Goðafoss, Iceland, 2025)
