Arizona’s haunting Superstition Mountains host many well-known legends, notably that of the Lost Dutchman Mine.
“Superstition Mountains Mist” (left) is a personal favorite in capturing the mysterious aura of these peaks, with their craggy crowns and giant Saguaro cacti.
“It’s misty this morning as I approach Phoenix, the result of rare recent rainfall. Glancing eastward toward the dawn, I savor a scene both pilots and authors can appreciate: misty layers of the Superstition Mountains torn from shades of monochrome paper. To a pilot it’s a photograph. To an artist it’s a painting. To a poet it’s verse. For me in my Flying Carpet, it’s a someday story hiding in an amazing view.”

“Texas Irrigation Circles”

As amazing as viewing the work of nature from the air, is surveying the veneer of civilization applied by humankind to the land. Read Greg’s December, 2009 Flying Carpet column, “The Longest Day,” where this image first appeared.
