Lower Antelope Canyon glows a deep red with the light reaching down the narrow slot canyon walls. This section was empty, quiet, and very beautiful.

Antelope Canyon
Antelope Canyon is a place of such unworldly light variations that it's hard to truly take in all at once. It can also make photography very difficult. Areas in direct sunlight are bathed in a fiery red-orange, while the cool shadows reflect a near purple glow. The canyon walls can be a bit tight and climbing from some angles can be challenging, but certainly traversable.
There are so many formations and twists of rock here. Light conditions change around every corner. This is a dream location for a photographer but anyone planning a trip to the Southwest should stop here to experience it. Suffice it to say I have hundreds of photos from only a short amount of time in the canyon. More coming.

Lady in the Wind
Lower Antelope Canyon is a beautiful slot canyon in northern Arizona. It has incredible curves and warm light reflecting off the sandstone through most of the day. One of the formations in the rock is called the Lady in the Wind.
