[Alisa]

I spent some time in the Black Canyon this trip. I really loved all the tall walls and rock. just amazing to see. CC welcome.

You make it very inviting

That is a distinctly rugged looking piece of terrain. You have handled the range of light in this scene well with an image that invites long looks. I like the almost whimsical grey clouds just above the rim.

Nice work Alisa, it's great to finally see some interesting photos from the Black Canyon. There sure aren't many good photos out there.

Jim is right, Alisa. This is an usually nice images of tis area.

At first look, I needed more canyon on the left and less treeless area on the right, but after a longer view, that beautiful sky helps balance the comp nicely.
Great place, thanks for the view Alisa.

 

[Alisa]

Thank you all for the compliments! It was a fun trip and can't wait to go back!

Really sweet light. Nice work, Alisa.

Very nice. I always thought I'd get over there for a climb, but never did. It is as tough to climb as to photograph - tricky descents to the base with loose rock and poison ivy to contend with, then stiff climbing (many routes have a pegmatite band that is especially hard).

Yeah, wow I couldn't imagine trying to climb the black canyon.
