we pulled off highway 89 and drove west across navajo grazing land. we figured that if we drove far enough we'd have to "bump" into the grand canyon. this is what we found. when you approach it the way we did, just got out of the car and walked to the edge, you are stunned at how huge it is. it goes forever and every part is big. how to photograph the grand canyon is another matter. we did not plan our arrival time. it was hazy and damp and as we were leaving, it started to drizzle. it was just one of those lucky times. i do look forward to finding a different road and a different view. but in the meanwhile i have the usual too many shots!

Jen....Ya know,
sometimes, all the compliments are really nice.
But this picture, it's really hard to make a comment on.
What am I gonna say? Stunning, Beautiful, Magnificant? Yup.
But those words don't even come close to the beauty of this shot.
I'm speachless....
How bout this...

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.....Ralph Waldo Emerson
You have outdone yourself this done girlfriend! We too, love to pull off the main road and find those beautiful hidden treasures..in your case, it was a big treasure! Nobody does pretty like Mother Nature and what a tribute to her for, of all days, Mother's Day!!
Everything looks awesome Jen, the colors, the capture, the composition, the striations (can you tell how much I love rock striations?:)
The river looks so beautiful as it flows through the rock of the canyon.......
another image well done by you my friend. Thank you for sharing it with us :~)
And......Happy Mother's Day to you!!!

Perfect capture! Having never been to the Grand Canyon, this is just wonderful to me and one of the best taken I've seen in a long while!

In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10
Nice shot. The water is so blue. Sometimes it has to be a lucky day to get the right photo.

If you love something, set it free.
It it comes back to you, it is yours.
If it does not, it was never meant to be.

Absolutely spectacular Jen, the spectrum of color is fabulous. Desktop and favorites. Best Wishes., Dwight.

The emotions, the tears, of wasted years, wash over me like a cold wind out of the north. I tremble and shake, with each breath i take, and there's no one around me that cares. Dwight.
Great shot, Jen. It is an awesome spectacle. And no real way of showing it's true immensity. This gives you a good idea, why there are so many climate changes, from the rim, to the floor.
Nice job.
Nice job.

Amazing texture in the rocks, and a lot of different colors... I have never been to the States, but this would be the first region I would like to visit!

Wait a minute. Are you saying that you got off any roads or hiways and just drove across pasture land? If so, what a find. Also, very brave. When you looked over the edge, you must have about sank to your knees. The variety of colors is stunning. I know what God said to Himself, when he created this, "The kids will love this when they find it."

This is a very pretty and interesting picture, most especially because it lacks what most others have: sky. I really like it.

Look to the Future, Remeber the Past, but Live in the Present, and Never forget to tell those you love "I Love You", you may not get another chance.
Very deep historically, geologically, and ... anecdotally
thank you .. never been there myself

Superb capture, gives a whole other personality to an often seen image, a very tough thing to do with such an iconic subject. This is one of those photos that makes me say, "THIS is the kind of photograph I'd like to take one day."

We've been away for most of the last 3 weeks and I've just been looking through your postings. This one stopped me in my tracks. I love the Grand Canyon anyway, but you've outdone yourself in this image. I am especially impressed with the way you have been able to capture the colors in the canyon all the way down to the blue water in the Colorado River. Usually shadows are so strong there that this is very difficult if not impossible to do. Great work!

If you can't find the words, you may as well shoot it...
Ah, very nice. I visited the canyon in 1992 and I'd love to go back someday. I didn't get any photos as nice as this unfortunately. I heard that when the first Europeans found the canyon they estimated that the river was 8 feet wide :D. Shows how wrong you can be. Awesome.
