Most photographs I have seen of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison show images of the canyon looking down to the water. The canyon is impressive and I can understand the focus for those images, heck I've taken quite a few with that vantage point as well. But sometimes I like to focus on different aspects of popular destinations. We got up early one morning to catch the canyon before the walls were illuminated. I found this clump of trees hanging to the edge of the canyon as the first morning rays of sun hit them. The rest of the canyon was still cast in shadow at this point providing a nice contrast with the illuminated trees just beginning to show their fall colors.

Remembering not so long ago when social distancing wasn't a thing. This was probably one of the more closed in feeling places I have ever been. So many people all over the place with little respect for personal space. Quite a feat of architecture. Makes you feel like you stepped onto a Harry Potter set. But the sheer number of people inside was enough to put me off. Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
