You have done a fine job of capturing the wide range of light in the canyon shot.

The second one is really impressive. Would you share the technical details? Is it postprocessed much?
I like the third and the fourth one also, it looks like something from LOTR.

Thank you all, Im glad you like #2, its the classic Upper Antelope Shot. The guides hold back the crowds for the photographers and throw dust into the air so you can see the light beams.

Exposure less than a second, f/16ish, low ISO, WB 4550, tripod, cable release, single exposure with levels adjustment using luminosity masks.

The light is so amazing there I took an iphone pic and it looks nearly as good! Every photographer should visit if they can.

2 is absolutely gorgeous. I would print that up in a second.
