Friday's Focus - 2019/02/15 - Grand Canyon

[JimFox]

The Focus this Friday is on the Grand Canyon!

Please add your Grand Canyon photos to this thread.

I will start with mine,

Jim

These are all from the same evening. It had been a stormy afternoon with the clouds starting to open up towards sunset. Throughout it all the storm continued in the distance until well after it was dark.

An experience I waited for a very long time.....and I don't mean while I was standing there that day, though that took three hours.

Such a magnificent place! Lots of great images posted already, that's for sure!

Alas, 1st time there was without any real camera. So these are all from one afternoon near the desert view overlook area.

My 'avatar' shot, back to the original crop (not sure which I like)

I wasn't around Friday but because this has been resurrected I'll post two from the north side of the canyon. The first is Hayden Peak and the second is from the meadows on the road into the north rim.
