Thanks for the link, Rob (some of the pictures take me back 20-30 years ago - when I used to backpack throughout Canyonlands & Moab area). (OK, now I feel OLD!)

Wow, Rob. These were some spectacular pictures. I forwarded the link to several people I know in Colorado and New Mexico. Thanks for sharing.

Aloha,

Heard the interview broadcast this morning on NPR on how Collier takes these photos. He uses a Cessna outfitted with footpedals for steering, flying while takeing the photos. The transcript of the interview is here:

The realization of the work involved makes it all the more impressive
