Happy Earth Day 2024 - a photo on Flickriver

Happy Earth Day 2024

            Happy earth day!   One of my favorite places on earth to photograph is Antelope Canyon in Arizona on the border of Utah.   It is very remote and is on Navajo land.   Unfortunately, the entire process associated with seeing it is frustrating.  Too many visitors have made it a tourist nightmare and people are pushed through the slot canyons in record times.   I wouldn’t go back there.  

I did not know the woman in the picture.   She broke into the yoga pose after the crowd of people in my group pushed through.   I just kept shooting.   She was posing for a boyfriend who was shooting with her iPhone.  I ended up missing my pre-arranged ride back to the parking lot.   That cost me an additional $20 to hitch a ride from a Navajo boy driving a dune buggy.   

This photo quest was a five hour drive from Phoenix.   The canyon walk through was probably ten minutes at most and the cost is $100.   As a photographer ten minutes is not enough for such a beautiful place.   Although I can understand the demand is high with this spot being on many photographer's wish lists.
