Taken about 7:00am in the morning as the sun was coming up for a new day

 

The canyon is 20 miles long, depth 1000ft, width 1500-4000 ft.

Primary rock type is Rhyolite. And the lava flow is 484,000 yrs ago. And it is an AWESOME view!!!!

Also named "Fjaðárgljúfur", with one "r" removed.

 

The most photographed canyon on Iceland, west of Kirkjubæjarklaustur.

... if you look closely, you can find a fence down in there ... for safety.

Pese a su nombre, Bryce Canyon (Utah) no es un cañón propiamente dicho porque la causante de la erosión es la lluvia, que produce estas formaciones llamadas "hoodoos" o chimeneas de hadas.

美國著名的大峽谷

Moonlight down into the entry of the Grand Canyon.

En el norte del estado de Arizona se encuentra este cañón llamado de ranura (más profundo que ancho) provocado por el paso del agua.

Pretty light and view there into the Arizona Abyss.

Thanks for your visit and comments! Would you like to use my photo on the web or print? Just ask :-)

View of Glen Canyon and the Colorado River. This image was taken looking north from the Glen Canyon Dam.

 

Navajo sandstone forms the canyon walls throughout most of the reservoir basin. The sandstone is remarkably uniform and homogeneous over wide areas and nearly identical samples can be obtained from areas separated by many miles. The Navajo sandstone is buff to reddish, medium to fine-grained, and moderately hard to soft.

 

Five separate rivers, of varying sizes, feed into and form Lake Powell. These include the Colorado River from Colorado, the Green River from Wyoming, the San Juan River from New Mexico, the Escalante River and Dirty Devil River from Utah.

 

Thank you for your comments.

I did not book a photo tour ahead of time so unfortunately this was shot hand held with hoards of people. I plan on going back with a scheduled tour.

Early in the morning as light slowly spills into the canyon through the clouds.

Lower Antelope Canyon

Arizona, USA

Il Parco Nazionale del Bryce Canyon è un piccolo parco nazionale situato nel sud-ovest degli Stati Uniti nello stato dello Utah. L'area protetta comprende il celebre Bryce Canyon che, nonostante il nome, non è propriamente un canyon ma un enorme anfiteatro originatosi dall'erosione del settore orientale del Paunsaugunt Plateau.

Il Bryce Canyon è celebre per i caratteristici pinnacoli, gli hoodoos, prodotti dall'erosione delle rocce sedimentarie fluviali e lacustri, erosione dovuta all'azione di acque, vento e ghiaccio. Le rocce hanno un'intensa colorazione che varia dal rosso, all'arancio al bianco..

Upper Antelope Canyon, near Page in northern Arizona. While only recently discovered (in 1931), the Upper Antelope and its counterpart, the Lower Antelope slot canyons, have quickly become must-see attractions in the American Southwest. The ever-changing, colourful sandstone walls and extraordinary shapes and textures are some of the most photogenic natural formations to behold.

View along the Colorado River at the beginning of the Grand Canyon.

Driving into one of the canyons in the San Rafael Swell was amazing! Happy to have brought along my wide angle lens for this one!

A view across the red land and hoodoos off in the distance at this location in Bryce Canyon. A pretty time to be hiking around there.
