10 Tips for Photographing the Grand Canyon

Arizona Photography, Landscape Photography, Nature Photography, Photo Techniques, Photography How To Tips, Photography Resources No Comments

I have lived in Arizona (almost) all my life and I am sorry to say I have only been to the Grand Canyon once (and that was over 20 years ago as a kid). I know, I should be ashamed of myself being a photographer with this “hole in the ground” in my back yard and not taking full advantage of it. It is on my 2011 Photography Resolution list to get to the Grand Canyon sometime this year to photograph. So Outdoor Photographer magazine’s recent article by photographer George Stocking is a great inspiration to me. 10 Tips For The Grand Canyon offers the insider tips of a great landscape photographer and is well worth a read even if you don’t have any immediate plans to visit the Grand Canyon.

Phoenix Sunset

Just a few clouds in the sky make for more dramatic sunsets. This sunset was photographed from Taliesin West in Scottsdale. The mountain in the distance is Camelback Mountain.
