Now that's what I call a view, Morris. :eek: Very dramatic. I like the colors, the serpentine creek, and the natural vignette.

Amazing view Morris! I hope to visit there again, in January 2014 with the rest of the extended family/clan. I am planning a trip in January to Kauai and Hawaii. Amazing place.

Thanks everyone for your time to comment. I know it's a precious commodity and I appreciate it. :wavey:

I envy you, Eva. It is truly a remarkable place and so different from island to island. I am already prompting the children to send me and my wife back on our 50th anniversary years from now. :biggrin:

And, I believe it should be in the Constitution that every American should be able to get one week there between the ages of 18 and 30 for free. :jump:

The dappled light going down into the depths of the canyon really highlight the scale of this amazing place! Spectacular Morris. Was this taken from a plane or the opposite rim of the canyon?

Crikey Morris, talk about giving me vertigo. Heights are not my thing but I'm loving this image.
