 Upper Antelope Canyon near Page, Arizona.

Navejo Canyon near Page, AZ.

Even on a photo tour with a Navejo guide, this site has become so crowded that there is barely room to walk. So I gave up using a tripod and shot freehand at ISO 1600. Noiseware Professional help cut the noise a bit. Difficult because the textures of the canyon walls are full of "noise" to start and to overdo noise reduction was destroying those textures.

Beautiful, beautiful light and form. I know it's rock, but it makes me think of silk.

This location is always a winner. Getting a unique POV now must be quite a challenge? Lovely flowing geology and colours.

Lovely flow and form. A good capture but looks a little noisy to me. Not sure what ISO it was shot at. Please and have a look at the Tony Kuyper Website especially his tutorials as he mainly uses the Antelpoe Canyon shots in them.
