Grand Canyon (and Sedona) advice
When driving to the Grand Canyon, take the turn off to the right going to Desert View. This road will take you by several turn outs where you will have different views of the Canyon to photograph. The final destination will be desert view. There you will see the tower and another view of the Canyon. The best time to start photographing are the hours of late afternoon as the shadows till accentuate the buttes in the Canyon. I live only a two hour drive from the Canyon and have been there many times to photograph it's beauty. Best wishes and good luck.

Yesterday Evening’s Sunset

Yesterday evening my wife alerted me to the nice colors of the setting sun. I was upstairs in my study, so I grabbed my nearest camera, an SX60, opened the window, and fired off several images. This is one of a number of good results.


Outstanding. The setting sun really accents the image.

In late August, I will have one day to spend at the GC. Where and at what times are recommended for photography?
And, while I'm asking, any recommendations for Sedona would be great.

Thank you


Go to the South Rim, be ready to shoot no earlier that 2 hours before sunset.(Known as the Golden Hour because that's when there is Buttes really stand out, otherwise the canyon is all washed out. Also, two hours after sunrise until about 10 AM. Hopefully, The monsoons will still be around and you will get some dramatic clouds over the canyon to incorporate in the scene. Go out the Desert view road for many pull offs to get different angles of your images.

Yosemite
I'm getting close to you at 86 going on 87 in November, so we both know what it is to age. I wish you all the best in your love for photography.

Yosemite in past years.


All are exceptional, as are all of your images. I've visited Yosemite many times over the years and am very familar with all of the locations you have so wonderfully photographed. I would like to get back there one day but the years are catching up with me.

Taken on a clear, crispy beautiful morning last year.


That's what the Navajo's call the "Totem Pole". That's a nice time of day to shoot. My wife and I had a Navajo guide take us to the same spot. We got there around 6:30 in the morning and watched the sun rise. Thank you for sharing.

Who do you use for large prints?

I want to do a larger print of this photo a 20x24. Who do you use? I usually go with a canvas or if a print Shutterfly, but not this time, they don't offer 20x24! Actually I want 20x20, but figured custom size would cost even more and I don't really want to spend an arm and a leg...


Try Canvas HQ. I've used them many times and they've always produced a quality product.

Grand Canyon Aerial?
katu41 wrote:
In reviewing my photo library, I found an image taken from the south rim of the Grand Canyon that I had not processed before. Late afternoon light and I am not sure but it may have been taken from my helicopter tour. I cloned out what I thought was the shadow of the copter in the lower right corner.

Definitely has to be viewed in "Download" as I don't even recognize the picture without it.


I've taken pictures from this exact spot numerous times as I only live a two hour drive from the Canyon. late afternoon light is the best time to shoot the Canyon. Beautiful image.

Social distancing has kept me close to home these days. I have found new areas to explore far away from anyone. There can always be a silver lining. Hopefully most of you are still out capturing images from home. 😊


Was this taken near Sedona, AZ?

I was visiting Yosemite with a few UHH friends and we were treated to lovely light on Half Dome. This is a single image that I captured with a 2 stop soft grad and a polarizer. I hope you enjoy the beauty of this magnificent park. K


I know this location in Yosemite. Absolutely gorgeous capture.
