Eternal Flow
After making two visits out to this slot canyon scouting, exploring, and shooting, Alan and I made a third excursion to capture this last scene. I always enjoy seeing swirling sandstone in slot canyon walls but I never seemed to find any bowl-like swirls in antelope canyon. Far above the canyon floor, we spotted this composition during our first visit. Unfortunately it was completely unshootable that day. Surely enough we didn’t heed the weather warnings and soon a drizzle became a steady rain with water gushing down the canyon walls. We managed to make it out wet but unscathed for another attempt.
Our third visit finally presented us with the correct timing to capture the glow pouring in from above. The coolest part was seeing the gradient of colors starting from yellow down to deep blues and purples at the bottom ledges due to Raleigh scattering.
