Another great view from the Grand Canyon National Park. This is the view to west from Yavapai Point Taken during sunset. This is one of the most popular locations on the south rim as it is the closes to the park visitor's center. Shooting it after sunset is a bit challenging as most of the canyon is way darker than the sky. I used a 0.9 Lee ND grad filter to get this, usually i never go above a 0.6 ND grad for sunsets.
Thanks for visiting hope you all have a great week ahead.

Another shot of Yavapai Point at sunset. This time I used my wide angle lens for getting the shot. This was one location at the Grand Canyon where I reached before everybody else and had the location all to myself to set the camera up for the sunset. Of course it got filled up a soon as sunset was happening but I had all the time in the world to change lenses and take photos at my leisurely pace.
Hope you all enjoy the shots, thanks for visiting…

From my first evening in the Grand Canyon. I will never forget the first time I laid eyes on this wonder. It's amazing how small it makes one feel....

This was taken on the same day of the perfect inversion in the earlier pictures I posted. I believe this was taken at Yavapai Point, which is another very popular destination on the south rim due to its close proximity towards the visitor center. I initially thought I will steer clear of this location and stick to less popular vista points but due to the clouds on the desert view road which were on the East I decided to try this location. And I hit pay dirt.
We reached early and had the location all to ourselves and I decided to try the panorama stitch I tried at the Griffith Park observatory. The problem was due to the unique elevation of the canyon and the fact that the actual interesting stuff is down in the canyon it’s almost impossible to use your tripods pano function and one has to carefully align exposure and composition manually in the freezing cold. I clipped some edges and almost fried my computer making this image but I am really satisfied the way it came out.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it. Thanks for visiting and have a great Monday…

Taken at Yavapai point at sunrise. To many people there at this early hour and all making to much noise, so i moved further along the rim far away...

Impossible to photograph, the great majestic Grand Canyon, so even this one comes not even close to the real magic when standing there and see this...

Kind of a different perspective that my previous posts of the Grand Canyon. This was our first sunrise there and I wasn't really sure where to go to...
