Panoramas of the Glen Canyon Dam

[wwillson]

Each pano is a series of about 8 pictures taken in RAW with my Sony A7 and merged in Lightroom.

Gives you an idea of how big the dam is. Look at the vehicles sitting on top toward the middle of the dam.

Think about the massive amount of weight that dam is holding back... It's staggering.

I have heard that the concrete inside that dam is possibly still curing.

What happens to the dam's structure if there's no water behind it?

Nothing. It took 10 years to build and 17 years to fill up so it sat empty for a long time.

What did the fish say when he hit the wall? "Dam!" What did the other fish say? "Look at that dumb bass!"

Great pictures!

It moves.
