…I enjoyed exploring san francisco volcanic area I spent hundreds of hours there from the air. When I first started flying over this area, I thought it was a pretty desolate area, but after flying with a friend who is a geologist, I saw the extreme volcanoes on display below me. I noticed the beauty and history…I was hooked. Friends, I am constantly amazed at what I have underneath.
The photo above is flanked by the Sunset Crater in the foreground and the San Francisco Peaks in the background. Just to the right of the peak is Kendrick Peak, and further to the right is Cinder Cone. Since we are looking from east to west, we cannot see the hearts on display when viewed from the other side…the collapse of the eastern rim of Sunset Crater is the beautiful one we see from the other side. It looks like a collapse instead of a heart shape. .
Below is a shot looking south from north shadow mountainwhich is the northernmost of the volcanic cinder cones in the field… what you are seeing is painted desert See Mount Elden, San Francisco Peaks, Kendrick Peak, Sitgreaves and more.
Last night’s aircraft was a Challenger 850 instead of a Gulfstream V…thanks friend for pointing out the differences between the planes…last seen below is a Gulfstream IV (450)…Gulfstream aircraft are more It has beautiful lines and is famous for its oval windows that others do not have. Thanks my friend for correcting me…I know now 🙂
Towards the weekend for me…while you are here and everyone we share this little planet with…smile and enjoy your days!
Ted
Forgive more, let me forget more.
close your eyes and let me sleep halfway
So that the photo becomes softer and quieter,
And life, God! Be gentle again.
