Canyonlands National Park II
Posted by Craig (Vacaville, California, United States) on 14 May 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
That's my sister-in-law (Chris) on the bike!
Note: This is not the Grand Canyon. Canyonlands National Park is located in Southern Utah.

@Scene by Sharon Photography: Distances are very hard to judge in places like this. I can tell you that I was using a 300 mm lens. Thanks for your comment!
Angry Buddha from United States
Damn! Kind of lets you know just how large this place is. Fantastic shot.

Very well composed... your sister-in-law serves as a slap in the face regarding the sense of scale here!

Gnarf from Stockholm, Sweden
She is so tiny! Or maybe the canyon is large... anyway, great perspective shot!

Glad you pointed the bike rider out or I would have had no idea what I as looking at... geeze, what a place.

Those big overhanging rocks look perilously about to squash your sister-in-law, she must be brave.
Without her riding by, I'd not be able to judge the scale of those huge rocks, and that big landscape is one impressive image

Kairospix from Singapore
wow you must have cycled real fast and far away from her to take this shot!
nice capture of textures and details!

Wow, that is a hill! Lucky she is going downhill! You've captured the massive scale of nature again Craig.

Dawn Sutherland from Phoenix, United States
Wow, that really puts it into scale!! I would not have pictured this moutain as that big if you didn't have your sister in there. Crazy!!

Great!! Wonderful colour. Good that you got that biker in there. Helps in figuring how huge the rocks and the canyon is.

Amazing shot! It really shows how massive the canyon is and how small we are. :)
