In a previous post Laura wrote a wonderful piece about our recent visit to Canyon de Chelly National Monument. Funny that we had previously been in the area many times, had been told that we definitely needed to see this national monument by a number of people, had read up on it, looked at photos of various scenes inside the park, had wanted to see it, but had never actually worked it into our travel schedule. While it did take us a while to get here, it was indeed, well worth the wait.
Images from our visit to Canyon de Chellty National Monument are below. I’ve also included a couple of Canyon de Chelly photos taken by the iconic photographer, Ansel Adams. While there is no way that my work could approach his brilliant images, it was incredible being in this special place and viewing the scenes from where he would have first seen them. And then trying to capture that moment.
