Saturday, 24 February 2024 - Today we slept in after getting up at 0400 for the past three days. We were tired from the big hike the day before. We need to be at the Grand Canyon by 1500 (3:00 pm) so plenty of time for a long breakfast and leisurely drive. We then went out to shoot sunset on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.

At Navajo Point we could see the Colorado River way in the distance looking to the west.

The sun was setting and there were many clouds. The light was special.

Looking into the sun across several rock layers. The sun was not cooperating as it stayed behind some low clouds.

The light makes the foothills so soft and the cliffs vibrant.
