Grand Obsession
This is my favorite image which I captured a year ago on an 8-day backpack into the incredible canyon. It was my first trip there, and I was with non-photographer/hard-core hiker types. So, I had to shoot on-the-go with very little time to think about my shots.
This was the only day that we saw any clouds, and it really helped make the photo work. I didn’t realize this at the time, but the lines really draw the viewer in to the art.
Lucky me. I leave tomorrow for another week-long backpack into the Grand Canyon!

What a beautiful view. Love the contrasts between the grainy grey sky and the green flow of water as it passes through the superbly textured and lit rocks.

great subject for HDR image, I don’t like a lot of HDR, people choose the wrong image and it ends up looking plastic, this however is superb, i know what you mean about clouds, i’ve given up on a plain sky, you need the extra drama.
love you work!

I can understand why this is your favourite shot RandyJayBraun. Its a beautiful image with immaculate composition and like you say the clouds really set it off. Great work.
