Hi Joline - The sunlight reflecting down through the deep canyon does really produce these pronounced warm colours in the rocks. The areas in complete shadow (like the foreground water in this shot) can, in contrast, exhibit a strong blue cast (especially with a long exposure - 13 seconds in this case).

"I think this is my personal favourite."
Yep, it should be, Mike.
It's a brilliant capture as I'd expect from you.
All the best,

It is amazing Mike. In some places the canyon walls are over a thousand feet high on either side and as little as 30 feet wide. A truly spectacular place.

Hi Phil - I have actually reduced the blue in the water a bit already but felt that the contrast between the warm tones on the rocks and the cooler blue cast was an important part of the image.
Of course what looks just about right on my monitor might not look so good on someone else's! I'll have to see how it looks when printed.

Quote:Hi Mike,
I know the colours in there can be pretty intense but I'm not sure about the cyan in the water. Nits aside, well up to your usual standard.
Jools ... a bit of artistic license is what photography is about on occasion. Unless of course you are a documentary photographer ... it's a bit of a niggle when landscape photographers become obsessed by 100% colour accuracy .. there will always be some difference between the image and reality.
Learn to enjoy it
stunner...
Best of the lot Mike. Shame I've already given the first one my award for the week. Inspiring photography, I am curious how you would get out of there if it started to rain though? Wouldn't be long before it was a raging torrent I would imagine?

Too true Phil. When we hired the waterproof hiking gear we sat through a video which gave advice and info about flash floods. It has been known for the water level to rise by around 12 feet in a matter of minutes! Oct/Nov isn't a high risk time of year and the weather forecast for the region didn't predict rain so we were pretty safe.
