Black Friday and the girls decided to head out at 4AM to shop and I headed for the Grand Canyon to watch the sunrise. Even though it was 15 and windy I stll think got the better end of the deal.

This is a great shot, love the 3-D look of the up close brush because of the lighting. I have been there a couple times and wishI could get there more often, but living in Wisconsin is a bit costly with the price of gas etc. Keep up the goo work

Magnificent! This would be a great reason to get up at 4 AM. Shopping? Not so much…
Some many photos of the Grand Canyon fail to capture it’s amazing depth of color, but you’ve done it! The bare trees are perfect in the foreground as well.
