The Little Colorado River meets its downfall. |
|
The river lives up to its name as it pours red, muddy water over the falls. | |

The mists rising from the falls create rainbows. | |||

You can see the yellow and green of a rainbow. | |||

More photo practice. I used my fastest shutter speed to try to stop the water. Click here for a bigger shot. |

Here's a peek at the peaks of the San Francisco Mountains. On the right is Humphrey (12,633') and on the left is Agassiz (12,356'). Humphrey is the highest peak in Arizona. | By clicking on this picture you can go to a 15 second movie of the falls. It's a Macromedia Flash movie. Click here to download the free Flash Player, if you don't already have it. The movie really gives you a great sense of being there because you can hear (be sure your sound is on) the roar of the falls. You'll also hear Kevon talking about a tire he's watching going around and around a vortex. | ||
