Point Imperial, Grand Canyon National Park

I took this photograph during my first trip to Grand Canyon National Park. Point Imperial with view of Mount Hayden is obviously well-known. This was taken at sunrise in August.

The gentle warm colors and the spotlight on the foreground peak look great, Jacob. The colors in the sky and the multitude of ridges leading into the distance are great atmospherics.

All I can say is WOW! Brilliant image Jacob.

Excellent image here with beautiful light and stunning color on the ridges.

I have to say, WOW too! A wonderful shot. The lighting and colors are awesome.

Thank you Mark, James, David, and Shirley! Much appreciated.

Jacob: I love the north rim and much prefer it over the south. The light makes this special and I especially like that you got some color in the sky. Wonderful scene superbly captured.>=))>

You caught a real nice glow of sunrise light on Mount Hayden. It stands out well against the blues and purples of the background canyon walls.

Thank you Bill and Doug. It was a great morning.
