Very nice shots.

The lake is declining in volume do to the way water is fed into the lake. Lake Mead use to be fed from the colorado river whent he winter snows melted. Now that flow has been diverted elsewhere and lake Mead has suffered dearly from it.

There, I fixed your post.

Anyway, Lake Mead is a man made lake... Who is to say this isn't just nature trying to correct for what we've done?

Then again, it could just be us screwing with nature even more than we already have.
