Made it to the Grand Canyon just before the Christmas Eve storm arrived. Woke up Christmas morning to a blanket of snow along the canyon rim.

Very Nice Set.
Snow enhance layering and colors.

Spectacular.

This is the best series of the Grand Canyon that I have seen in a while.
Too much to comment on really apart from offering congratulations!

#2 for me.

I love the snow on the canyon. It's still the majestic Grand Canyon but with a different mood.
Well done!

Yes. Love the contrast between rock and snow.
-
really nice shots. I like the 3rd image with the sunlight window very well rendered.
-
Thanks everyone for your thoughts. It was a wonderful morning. :)
-
I also like number two. Amazing! I look forward to what you come up with this year.

Great set. I particularly enjoyed the third one.
-
SCORE!!!

I'll echo what everyone said above. I really enjoyed looking at them.

Cool stuff! It snowed once while I was staying in the park…November 1994. The flakes coming down made for a gorgeous sight.

I particularly like the pano. By the way, how many frames is it stitched from? And what focal length lens were you using?

+1.
It's so nice to see the Canyon in a very different nood from the "classic." Very nice set.

5 Vertical frames @ 24mm stitched in Lightroom.

Beautiful. I love the way snow interacts with the vibrancy of the American southwest. On a clear day after a storm, white snow, red rocks and bright blue sky can be amazing together.
-
These are great, especially the Isis Temple Peak shot. I've been to the Canyon a few times, but not seen it with so little haze. That clarity is likely another benefit of the snow.
-
I love all of them and appreciate that you would brave the cold for me to enjoy.

It's the least I could do! :)

I can only echo what the others have posted before but damm! those are really nice. I had the pleasure of being at the canyon for a few days and staying at the El Tovar (which in itself is a great experience!), but my trip was done in much warmer weather. With your permission I'd like to use these 3 beautiful shots as a part of my rotating screensaver.

Go ahead. You have my permission.

The El Tovar is a cool lodge/hotel. Make your reservation way in advance of your planned stay…like a year or so. I like staying in Bright Angel Lodge cabins too, especially those right near the canyon rim.
