Did my 3rd annual post Labor Day, pre wet suit necessary, narrows hike this weekend. I like to hike it with smaller crowds, but without hypothermia. This year I stayed in the canyon later than either of my previous trips and I think it payed off, but you can be the judge. C&C welcome and thanks for looking.

Very nice. I like the third best, it has the best light on the rocks and the texture of the water just leads my eye to the light.

Very nice Jeff, I like them all, maybe I'd crop the bottom and left of #2 a little. Maybe #1 is my fav.

Nice trio, the third one is fabulous!!

All 3 are very nice, but #1 and #3 are standouts. I really like #1 because it has the mix of colours, green and reds; and #3 for the composition. I think staying in the cayon a little longer definitely paid off!!.

Jeff, #1 and #3 are fantastic. Really nice work.

I like #1 best, but they're all winners!

#1 and 3 are great, 3 is especially strong. Very nice control of the light and processing.

That third shot is fantastic. Love the glowing rocks and the nice lead in. The first is excellent as well. The greenery is a nice touch to that one. The second lacks the impact of the other two, but is still nice.

All 3 are nice, but #3 is great. It paid off big time for you staying longer in the canyon. I'd be a happy camper to have these in my collection.

Jeff, I really like the second one. I've been waiting for the crowds to thin out at Zion, and your images are inspiring me.

#1 and #3 are phenomenal, Jeff. Beautiful light and fantastic compositions. I really need to do that hike one of these days!

All three are fantastic! I love the light on the canyon walls and the silky water in #3.
