Cal attended a photography workshop in Canyon De Chelly 16-20 October. This was special as it was guided by professional photographer and Navajo, LeRoy DeJolie. Arizona Highways Photo Workshops decided to end their programs at the end of 2023 so this would be his last workshop. Cal had wanted to go to Canyon De Chelly with LeRoy after a workshop in 2018 to Monument Valley.


Canyon de Chelly is one of the longest continuously inhabited areas in North America. Over 83,000 acres in size there are three major canyons - Canyon de Chelly, Canyon del Muerto, and Monument Canyon. Ruins in the canyons are from between 350 and 1300 AD.
