grand canyon is indeed breathtaking!
must be a haven especially for mf and lf

Yes it is. These 2 shots however weren't taken at the Grand Canyon. Dead Horse Point is about 350 miles North East of the Grand Canyon in Utah. It's wedged in-between Canyonland National Park and Arches National Park.

Here's one from Canyonland National Park

2 from Dead Horse Point State Park

... and 1 from Arches National Park. Funny thing is the images of the actual arches didn't come out all that nice.

I used a 205FCC, 40mm for most of my shots, and 180mm for the 3rd image. Velvia 50 in my opinion is the magic ingredient. I try to keep the red rocks to between zones 4 to 5. The deep blue skies however is what I look for the most and thus try not to have the sky any brighter than zone 7. Zones 8 and above would render a very pale blue with Velvia. It needs to be no more than zone 7 to get that deep "cheating" blue. Shutter speeds were all no slower than 1/60 as I handhold. A tripod is too cumbersome.

Just visited your blog. WOW!!! Gorgeous images! Thanks for sharing. I think you would need a lot more than 2 more weeks to cover the National Parks.

If you go North from the Grand Canyon into Utah you would get to Salt Lake City. Here's one from Antelope Island, it's in the middle of the great salt lake.

Further North will take you into Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. That is an absolute must see.

Grand Teton.

3 from Yellowstone.

Further North still would bring you into Montana. Glacier National Park and Coeur d'Alene in Idaho West of that.

Lake MacDonald, Glacier National Park

Coeur d'Alene Lake, Idaho

North of that would be Banff, Canada and Jasper National Park. Probably the most beautiful of all the Parks that I've been to.

Morraine Lake, Jasper. It's green from Glacial deposits.

Lake Louise, Jasper.

Lake Minnewanka.

 

[beanokim]

Still in Jasper National Park.

Lower Falls, Johnston Canyon

Sulphur Mountain. Part of the Canadian Rockies. Pulled over on the Highway to snap this.

Ice walk on the Athabasca Glacier which forms part of the Columbian Icefield.

Another one from Lake Minnewanka in Autumn

Moving East to the other end of Canada would be Niagara Falls in Toronto.

2 of the American and Niagara Falls

Now going South along the Eastern Seaboard would be sights of all the beautiful trees and greens.

Autumn in the Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania

Further South into Asheville, North Carolina and the beautiful Blue Ridge Highway
