Thank you for the comments. I debated using this shot, or another taken about an hour earlier, before sunset, but I just liked this one better for the darker atmosphere. The dark clouds to the left are the leading edge a storm coming across the canyon from the north rim.

This's REALLY cool! It's too dark, yet perfect because of it. Brave, yet appropriate for discerning voters. I hope this receives proper viewing for its votes......9
