The spots lights on the Antelope Canyon comes about 12:00 Hrs,

That's meant the tourists hours, so, too many people and hard to take... no the picture, but the space to take the picture

I hope you like it

CC Welcomes!!!!

Classic shot with nice tones and color in the sandstone. The light beam however, looks very unnatural. I would reprocess this to remove the hard edges of light and tonal banding in the beam.

Enrique,

I've never been, but can only imagine the zoo-like atmosphere trying to photograph in Antelope canyon. The good news is that the images that keep coming out of here are still beautiful and this is no exception. My only suggestion would be to back off the magenta in some areas as the saturation is a little strong. This bright highight on the rock isn't bothering me as there is some detail in there.

Nice job with the comp and capture from the slots.

Comp and colors are good. The light beam looks kind of harsh. Crowds of people or not, it must be fun to shoot there.

The psychedelic quality to this is very strong. With one eye closed, it becomes very abstract, which I like. Might be the processing, but it feel like there is paper that could be lifted off where the light strikes the rock.

I really like the shot as a whole, but I agree, the beam looks unnatural. The colors and textures of the rock are wonderful though.
