Canyon Verde by pflaume

Canyon Verde

This is the second photo I have taken of this canyon for my 365 Project. The first was in the deep of winter. What a different place it is now. I think I will make it a point to return for a shot in every season and assemble a collage of canyon images at the end of the year.

Here is my shot of the canyon in January.

By the way, the buoys hanging in mid air in the January photo are the same that became orange "lanterns" in my flipped image "Dam Reflection" from yesterday. The canyon is looking up river from the dam.
Breathtaking !!

That's very impressive landscape - such a difference between the two and neat that the perspective is pretty much identical for each shot.

May 20th, 2013  
Spectacular landscape !
May 20th, 2013  
Lovely serene landscape of this gigantic canyon!
May 20th, 2013  
What a beautiful view. Excellent idea to do the four seasons. I did that with a shot here in my first year and meant to do it last year but didn't get around to picking a subject and then it was too late! This will look particularly beautiful in the Fall I imagine.
May 20th, 2013  
Beautiful shot. And I agree with every above great idea to do a series of them
May 20th, 2013  
@sjouk Thank you so much for your comment and fav, Sjouk! I am delighted that you like this. It is in fact almost in my backyard. I drive 3 minutes to get here. I think I have taken it for granted in the past, but this project has helped me to really appreciate it's beauty.
May 21st, 2013  
Absolutely beautiful. And it looks like you shot it from the EXACT same spot. Fav for sure.
May 21st, 2013  
Gorgeous.It has a regal stillness to it that I really enjoy.
May 21st, 2013  
Fabulous shot! Love the idea of coming back each season.
May 21st, 2013  
This is a beautiful shot, Lisa. I especially love the opportunity to compare it with the winter shot. Nice!
May 21st, 2013  
Beautiful scenery, and the lone tree sets it off nicely. I think the water level has come up since winter.
May 21st, 2013  
Gorgeous scene! And a reflection as bonus! :)
