    Wow – what a view! The colours are astounding, indeed. Bright orange-red in the front turning more and more blue with the distance. And the silhouetted tree is excellent here.

    Wonderful layers in this image. That coppery red is just gorgeous! I was there in winter when the Canyon looked like a layer cake with snow all over it but the colours were nothing like this!
