I made my first solo trip to the Grand Canyon August 2,3 & 4 of 2007. What an experience! I believe the granduer is even more magnificent when one is alone than with other people. If there is nobody there to disturb you, your thoughts are yours alone. It is hard to imagine, even when you are standing on the edge, that this is not a movie set that you have wondered into. I did not take any kind of ipod (or such) with me so the solitude was near deafening at times. When sunset came near and the wind died down as it usually does as the air cools, the silense was even more obvious because the sounds of the birds and other creatures became that much more vivid. It also became quite evident that through these eyes a little piece of heaven could be glimpsed. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed capturing them for you.
