Photography Now & Then #139
Most of the vegetation is super green right now. If the very warm weather continues without appreciable rain, there may be a lot more brown before the end of summer.

We’ve taken the tour at Glen Canyon Dam twice, first in 2011 and then, again in 2015. One of the first exhibits you come to on the tour is a huge metal pin-wheel looking device. It is actually the turbine blade assembly from one of the dam’s generators. Originally installed in 1965, it was removed in 2008 as part of a 40 million dollar project that replaced all eight turbines.

Photography Now & Then Notes:
Series Photos
- The Now photo is one that is almost always taken the day of the blog post. In some instances, posts may be backdated if internet access is not available on the day of the photo or other reasons prevent posting Photography Now and Then.
- The Then photo is usually a randomly selected older photograph from a batch of photos specifically “curated” for Photography Now and Then.
- Each photo in this series is an “original work” – a copyright term – of Michael Goad.
- Reference links were accessed on the date the blog post was published, unless otherwise stated.
- The title convention for Photography Now & Then blog posts evolved early on from one word related to each photo separated by “&” to usually being the first word in the caption description for each photo.
