High Noon
I try to make it a habit to stop and look up every so often when
inside a slot canyon because the view above is often just as
interesting as what lies ahead. As the sun passed through the
zenith overhead we worked quickly to make some exposures. As you
can see on the boulder to the left, the shaft of light that
penetrated to the canyon floor at this spot was only about 10
inches wide and we had to to maneuver within tight quarters to
stand within the light and shoot the sun. In a few short minutes
the sun had passed across the narrow gap overhead and we were
walking once again in the cool shade of the canyon.
