Day 281: The Bright Angel Trail

Tuesday, October 19, 2010

From the Lodge there is a 1/4 mile trail to Bright Angel Point, where the best overlook from the Lodge is.  I wandered out there to see the moon come up.  There was lots to see before then! (1/30, f16, 60mm, ISO 320, -1 stop) One for those who don’t like living on the edge… […]

Day 280: The Grand Canyon Lodge

Monday, October 18, 2010

The Grand Canyon Lodge is a work of art.  It sits at the end of a long, narrow peninsula, and you see the Lodge before you really see anything else. (1/30, f16, 28mm, ISO 320, -1/2 stop) First you pass the campground and gas station, then an assortment of Motel and Pioneer Cabins, and finally […]

Day 279: The Cliff Rose!

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

I saw this fascinating flower while I was out on Cape Royal. (1/125, f8, 27mm, ISO 320 -1/2 stop) It grows as a tall, tree-like shrub, with pretty little yellow flowers… (1/500, f8, 30mm, ISO 320, -1/2 stop) …but the neat part is the feathery white streamers that float on each “tree”. (1/750, f8, 40mm, […]

Day 278: Cape Royal!

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

These two signs identify the major features that can be seen from Cape Royal. … … This panorama covers a lot of the view. (Four photos stitched together in MS ICE) (Click to enlarge, BACK to return!) On the left is Vishnu Temple. (1/750, f8, 25mm, ISO 320, -1 stop) In the middle is Horseshoe […]

Day 276: Angels Window part 2

Tuesday, October 12, 2010

Here is a closer view of the Angels Window.  You can see the Colorado River through it.  Note the railings on the top…it is a pretty good viewpoint on its own. (1/125, f16, 29mm, ISO 320, -1 stop) A very nice idea is the park benches at most of the view points.  It is not […]
