Winter Antelope Canyon
These are from a few years ago when I visited Antelope Canyon during the last week of December. Such a different place than in the summer. The light doesn't penetrate down as far and it has a much moodier feel. I'd really appreciate any critiques you might have, thanks!

Hmmm, the words "a deep and dark December," come to mind, Scott. From Simon and Garfunkel's "I am a rock." Of course, I am a rock works, too. :biggrin:
I like these decidedly different and definitely moody versions from there. The subdued light and colors make for unique takes on it. Well done.

I've been wondering what Antelope would look like near the solstice. Heh.. Nice.

Absolutely love the contrasts of dark and light in #3. Also like how your eye is drawn through the image.

Nice work Scott! I was there in January of last year and loved the difference and subdued colors not normally seen.

The colors in 2 are very cool and the comp in 3 just draws me right in.

Really like #3! Colors in #`1 might be a tad too subdued.
