Revisiting my photo collection of 2014, now on retina display, brings an other dimension to the shots taken in Antelope Canyon (lower), Arizona.

I know IFL has a few of these shots, including some of mine, but who can say they are tired to look at them? It's a unique place with infinite perspective and shapes.

"To older Navajos, entering a place like Antelope Canyon was like entering a cathedral. They would probably pause before going in, to be in the right frame of mind and prepare for protection and respect. This would also allow them to leave with an uplifted feeling of what Mother Nature has to offer, and to be in harmony with something greater than themselves. It was, and is, a spiritual experience." --The Navajo Nation Parks.

I love America, and this place will be forever in my heart.

I took this while driving through the White Mountains in Arizona. It was a few hundred yards from the road. It would've been perfect in a more secluded spot. But the backdrop of pines and aspens made it too good to pass up. Enjoy!

I took this picture during my visit to Lower Antelope Canyon in Arizona. We arrived there early so we could capture the best light throughout the morning.

The moonrise over the mountains north of Tucson coincided perfectly with golden hour, so I stepped out from dinner and got this shot from my backyard. I love the Arizona sunsets!
