Upper Antelope Slot Canyon

Navajo Nation, Navajo County, Arizona view map

A laser beam shaft of sunlight pierces the slot canyon to illuminate the scene.
This is definitely one of those times when it pays to be in the right place at the
right time --- the very reason why we paid for the photography tour.

"Laser beam" is an apt description for this intense shaft of light. Beautiful capture with marvelous patterns in the walls as well. V.

Extemely dramatic! In behind the fall of light or sand, there is an ancient warrior… V

Such a beautiful photo! A location that most of us will never be. It reminds me of that scene in one of the Indiana Jones movies where they are looking at the map but it needs to be shining through the crystal to pinpoint the exact location... :) I love the sense of adventure it conveys.

Indeed. Such a special photo. Belongs in AZ Highways and other publications. Spectacular! Congratulations, Sam!

Tom Munson		14-Apr-2014 03:54
Perfect timing on this wonderful image, Sam.

Very well done, Sam. Mesmerizing to look at. It really did pay to have the tour and guide, hectic and crazy as that all was. ~BV~

Margot W		14-Apr-2014 03:08

Boom - nice on Sam! \/!

That's an amazing capture, Sam! I know how fast light moves sometimes from the time I see the right light until I raise my camera. So it must not have lasted very long You were certainly there at an opportune moment. \/
