"It is one of the commonest of mistakes to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive"
C.W. Leadbeater
This is the first watercolor I actually planned and executed. The black rings in the iris are supposed to be multiple pupils.

An ongoing project where I wish to approach the idea of perception and particularly how the human eye adjusts and functions to produce the world we see around us.
Antelope Canyon is one of the most famous slot canyons in the United States. It's exceptionally photogenic (though didn't seem to gain attention until the last 10-20 years or so).
It's located near Page, Arizona (about three miles east) in the Navajo Nation. To tour here, you have to take a guided tour with a Navajo.
It's rather amazing; there's an upper and lower Antelope. Upper (I think) tends to be the one that has the "sunbeam" shots, whereas lower has the more nuanced shots. (These are all Lower Antelope Canyon, by the way.)
Lower Antelope has produced some famous shots for tech nerds. Both Apple and Microsoft have used Lower Antelope Canyon for screensavers.
Amazingly, Lower Antelope is only 400 meters (1/4 mile) long, yet it feels much longer due to depth perception.
There are a few formations that the natives named (maybe for tourists, maybe not) including the Woman in the Wind, the Eagle, the Chief, Ice Cream Cone, and the Wave (that Microsoft used).
This place is addictive...
some students cannot concentrate from others' noise, such as keyboard typing, turn over newspaper, chatting and cell phones.
