Watch out Ansel Adams

Or not.

As I mentioned, me and my hubby and the parents went for a weekend getaway to the Grand Canyon, weekend before last. It had been about ten years since I'd been there, and my father had never been! He's lived here for 40 years. How do you not go to the Grand Canyon in 40 years? That boggles me.

Anyhow, I went there, excited to take pictures, thinking I was going to come back with Ansel Adamsesque pictures. Didn't happen. First of all, I have about 1/10 the talent of that photographic genius, and secondly, well...there was so much haze there! I was so saddened. The tour guides told us part of it was due to fires, but the majority of it was due to plain ol' pollution. One of the greatest natural wonders of the world is turning into a smoke stack. *coughs*

Don't get me wrong, it's still absolutely beautiful, and so worth the trip.





Here's my handsome hubby looking out over the beauty of the Grand Canyon. And no, this shot is SO not set up. :)


Where to next? Any suggestions?
