Nice photoset GreenBay, Last October, I visited the Lower Antelope Canyon and took the $40 "Photographers Only" tour package through Dixie Ellis' Lower Antelope Canyon Tours. This canyon is less open at the top so you don't concentrate on the sexy sunbeams but rather the structure, shadows and colors. The recommended time was mid-afternoon as the sun is then reflecting off the walls, adding to the colors and shadows and thereby creating more depth.
When I returned for my time slot at 2:00pm, I found out that I was the only photographer on this tour so it was just me and my dedicated guide, Andrea. It was such a blast that they had to pry me, kicking and screaming, out of the canyon.

Beautiful pictures. I'm no AC expert, but when we were looking at tours for the upper canyon, we chose one that said "for photographers" in the description. She did a really good job of holding back the hordes for a few minutes while we could get our shots. She was also fairly knowledgeable about what camera settings to use. Trouble is - I don't remember her name!!!!! I understand that if you go mid-week in an off season, you can stay a bit longer and you don't have to fight quite such large crowds. Inside the camera is usually quite pleasant temperatures, even when it's really warm outside. There are so many people walking through that canyon, I don't think the creepy-crawlies have much of a chance (translation: they probably aren't there!) Flash floods are a major problem in the lower canyon, but the upper is pretty open.
