Hi Rachel, The light is not doing you any favors here but you know that already. Maybe lift the contrast slightly on the distant red cliffs?? Nice composition. I was watching an historic re-enactment of a traverse of the Grand Canyon in rowing boats last nigh on TV.. Water was the same colour, looked like flowing chocolate.

Hi Rachel, we have a great view of the layered formation of the rocky sides, and love the colour of the mountains in the BG. Does the water run through the entire course of the canyon.

Thanks Don and Stu. Yep, that is the color of the river from the clay silt in it. I went white water rafting on the Colorado years ago through Canyonlands N.P. and everything winds up that color including your skin after a few days. Stu - the river does run the length of the Canyon but it is very narrow compared to the width of the Canyon now.
Thanks again,
Rachel

A lovely view and I can just imagine the way those red rock faces light up in golden hour...
I've been enjoying seeing the Canyon through your eyes Rachel.

Hi Rachel...very nicely composed with nice details in the rock walls...sometimes these harshly lit scenes can work very nicely as B&W...did you consider trying a conversion? Looking forward to more from your trip :)

This is indeed a very nice image.. /Wonder if a bit of curves ala contrast,tonal contrast might make the reds, and pink hues pop a bit more.. Sweet image!!
