Went to the Grand Canyon hoping for some sunrise, sunset shots but it ended up snowing the whole time. The canyon would only reveal itself for about 2 minutes every couple hours. C&C welcome.

    Beautiful work, Brian! All the images are wonderful! :Dthumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Very nice. #5 is a keeper. Would love to make it out to GC during the winter, devoid of all the tourists buses!

    Ditto on #5, but they are all nice.

    Very nice, I think your shots came out better with snow that they would have with sunshine. Everyone has Grand Canyon shots with sun, snow I haven't seen as many. Great work.clap.gif

    When you think of the Grand Canyon you dont think of snow. So it was a pleasant surprise.

    Great shots. As others said previously # 5 is the keeper.

    Love #5. There is also a lot of potential in #4. The contrast is a little flat over the canyon and I'm wondering if a curves adjustment (maybe a LAB adjustment) would really make it pop. Also, there seems to be detail in the clouds you could bring out by applying an exposure gradient which would darken the clouds slightly, bring out detail, and add more depth.

    Thanks again for looking and all the suggestions. I have replaced #5 with a different version and also have a thirty inch one just like it on my wall now.

    love the shots, they are all great (far better than mine from my trip there.)
    Am I the only one though to think the stylized C a tad distracting? I can appreciate you want to keep them as yours but a little more subtle perhaps? I in no way intend to be overly critical here, just a thought, as to me it really makes it hard to see the beauty in the pix.

    Sorry about the watermarks. They were not there in the original post.
