Re: Amazing!

Thanks, Mtybumpo! It is an amazing place. This is one of the less dramatic images. Probably the best view is from Exclamation Point on the North Rim. It shows what this canyon is really like at its deepest and narrowest. If you're interested, you can see an image of my son and I at Exclamation Point here:

Curtis and Mark at Exclamation Point

BTW: Congrat's on the upcoming wedding! :-)

Great!

I really like this shot, as well as most all of your photos. The lightness in the bottom half to the darkness of the cliffs and cloud - great contrast.

Re: Great!

Thanks, Ragu! I'll admit to using a GD filter when I took this shot. --mark d.
