Great Salt Lake

Happy Easter Mom, and you don't need to read any further.

Clark took me up in his Archer on Wednesday to see if I could get a story-telling shot I could not make from the ground, about the encroachment of suburbs on farmland north of Ogden. The light opened up just long enough, and Clark was very patient.

The ducks and waders are back, could even see some from the air near the Bountiful airport. Soon (May 17-22) we'll have the Great Salt Lake Bird Festival. Sometimes people in Utah have the strangest opinion about the Great Salt Lake, along the lines of "there's nothing out there." Even though I know it is actually teeming with life down there, I find the visual starkness of it beautiful.

Gorgeous image! I really need to scan in all the arial stuff I did of the Great Salt Lake to show you some more of the beauty out there.
