IMG 8018-HDR  Gloria, Jerry & Don head out before dawn to shoot some pictures at sunrise.  We caught a good one looking east toward the Mittens. IMG 8027-HDR(3)  We were a little early (fortunately) for looking north from the recommended point for sunrise pics.  Jerry sat in the car and ate all the trail mix, while G&D stood by with their cameras for the perfect sunrise pics. IMG 8030-HDR(3)  We're getting there. IMG 8051-HDR(3)  Our wait paid off, except for the lack of clouds. What happened, Anni?  Sleeping on the job?

IMG 8096-HDR(3) IMG 8102-HDR(3) IMG 8108-HDR(3)  Our last sunrise pic in Monument Valley.  After returning to the hotel, we had breakfast and then drove on to Antelope Canyon at Page.  Barb, Laura and Scott had never been there, so I offered to take them but those that went last year wanted to go again.  We lucked out and got on the next tour and had the best sun angles I've experience in the many times I've been there.

IMG 8120-HDR IMG 8123-HDR  Don't know what Scott was doing???? IMG 8126-HDR  In the truck.  The driver almost immediately got stuck in the deep sand.  But he got it going again. IMG 8140-HDR(3)  My (Don's) best shot ever of a light beam/shaft penetrating the canyon.  The slot canyon that is Antelope Canyon, is evidenced by the two closely spaced, but very high, walls.  Not for the claustrophobic.
