I found it very hard to capture a different view of the Grand Canyon. First is the enormous size. Taking a 10 shot panorama on the edge of a cliff was not happening. At this elevation there is always wind. And I hate heights! !

The sun and distance gave every long shot a haze.

I did find an incredible beauty on the canyon walls. Just a small patch of earth was enough for a garden to grow.


A walk along the rim and changing light created an ever changing look.

The image above is my favorite. Instead of looking down and to the distant formations all I needed was shade and a small scrub tree garden.
Dude, exactly, me too! Yes it is amazing, but would I ever return? No. By the way I got a photo of that tree too on the out cropping too! 🙂
Incredible place, but I agree, not going back soon. Red Rock, Oak Creek, more to my liking.
