    Ed, these pictures are just beautiful. I particularly like #1, You have a talent for textures. Your patience waiting out the water snake paid off!! I looked and looked and never saw it. I can't wait to see more!

    You call that wildlife:lol . That is a great use of light and texture in the first five Ed. How was Antelope Canyon, it looks lovely in the photos but is it somewhere you would go back to? Did you have Connie throwing sand into the air in the third shot.

    Ed, those Antelope Canyon shots are great.
    I've never been there, but I feel like I have at least caught a glimpse of it now.

    Not sure I call it wildlife but it's what we had lol3.gif

    Antelope Canyon is not as peaceful as it looks, way too many people, your gear gets caked with dirt and sand, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat..

    Our guide was throwing dirt in the air so we could catch the beams...

    We went on what they call their "Photo Tour" you get about two hours more or less and they get you there in time to catch as many of the beams as possible.

    The dirty secret of our nature spots: they're crammed with people like us! Sometimes it can be hard keeping them out of the shots! lol3.gif

    Go for it Chris, it's a load of fun. But figure out some way to protect your gear, I'm still digging sand out of my equipment...

    Great shots, Ed. I particularly like the snake, and Antelope must be really amazing. It was great to meet you, Missy and Connie. Hope you make it north to see Grizzlies and Orcas!

    Completely stunning shots of Antelope Canyon. Yea, we've all seen them before but what the hell, you did an awesome job and they're beautiful!

    I really wanted to be with the group for this trip as this is a part of the country I have not seen. While you all were shooting though I was having back surgery. Maybe I'll be able to join the shootout next year.
