Canon 20D – 17-40mm L – 17mm – 1s – f/11 Antelope Canyon is the most-visited and most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest. It is located on Navajo land near Page, Arizona. Antelope Canyon formed over the course of millions of years by erosion of the Navajo Sandstone, primarily due to flash flooding and secondarily due to wind erosion. Rainwater (especially during monsoon season) runs into the wash that Antelope Canyon is part of, picking up speed and sand as it rushes through the narrow passageways. Over time the passageways are eroded away, making the corridors wider and smoothing hard edges in such a way as to form characteristic ‘flowing’ shapes in the rock. Upper Antelope Canyon, called Tse bighanilini, “the place where water runs through rocks” by the Navajo, is the most frequently visited by tourists, due to two considerations. First, its entrance and entire length are at ground level, requiring no climbing. Second, beams (shafts of direct sunlight radiating down from openings in the top of the canyon) are much more common in Upper than in Lower. Beams occur most often in the summer months, as they require the sun to be high in the sky. / In the same series: / / /

Antelope-Corkscrew Canyon, shows a powerful ray of light coming through the cavern top and illuminating the cave walls in brilliant orange-reddish colors. Antelope Canyon is so unique, it has also become known as The Corkscrew, Corkscrew Canyon, Upper Antelope, Wind Cave, or The Crack. This image was taken inside the cave with a 45 second time exposure to account for reciprocity failure. I use a Canon Elan with a 20mm lens and negative film. I still love the color depth in negative film vs. digital cameras :) Upper Corkscrew Canyon is located around the Navajo Reservations and usually requires a jeep to get you there. This location is just outside Page, Arizona.

This photo is a personal favourite.. The ice-cave sof Antarctica are amazingly beautiful and alluring, yet incredibly dangerous. They shimmer with frigid, crystalline magic, daring you to sail on in to admire the interior decoration, yet the ice crystals could so easily become incisors in the jaws of destruction..

This was an amazing ice canyon in Juneau Alaska. We stumbled on it during a helicopter tour of the glacier after they let us get out and walk a bit. Amazing. Other sets by Kara… / NATURE / LANDSCAPES / PEOPLE / POEMS / PORTRAITS / SPORTS / SUNSETS / TRAVEL / ARTISTIC WORK / BOUDOIR / OTHER

This image was bitch to capture and process. There was about a gazillion stops between the highlights and shadows. I think from memory I did a 9 stop bracket to capture the shadow and detail. The processing was really difficult to do without making the image look unreal. Natural Bridge is a pretty cool place to visit in Springbrook National Park in QLD. Enjoy.

Mexico: Dive with mantas, dolphins, whales; swim with sea lions and turtles! It has 7 shades of blue water, and the finest Scuba Diving in the Caribbean. And besides the reef it offers caves, caverns and sinkholes that are ideal for snorkeling. Matted Print /

Looking out from a cave on an eroding peninsular which will eventually become another free standing stack (or apostle). One step further back and it’s a very high plunge into the ocean. This section is now closed to the public due to erosion and obvious safety reasons. Taken c 1980. ‘The Twelve Apostles’, Great Ocean Road coastline, Port Campbell National Park, Victoria, Australia.

Antelope Canyon is the most-visited and most-photographed slot canyon in the American Southwest. It is located on Navajo land near Page, Arizona. Antelope Canyon includes two separate, photogenic slot canyon sections, referred to individually as Upper Antelope Canyon or The Crack; and Lower Antelope Canyon or The Corkscrew. The Navajo name for Upper Antelope Canyon is Tse’ bighanilini, which means “the place where water runs through rocks.” Lower Antelope Canyon is Hasdestwazi, or “spiral rock arches.” Both are located within the LeChee Chapter of the Navajo Nation. source: wikipedia Taken with a Nikon D70s with a 18-200mm Sigma lens

A view from inside the cavern at Natural Arch. / Not many people will be able to get inside the cavern now without getting a $225 fine from the EPA as they have put a closure on Natural Arch due to fear of it caving in, plus a frog species in or around the cave is now under threat.
