Grand Canyon Sunset

Grand Canyon Sunset
We were visiting the area, and parked our RV at a National Forest campground near the entrance to the National Park.

This setup allowed us to visit the canyon rim at all hours, rather than trying to keep a schedule for a day trip.

We got to the rim an hour before sunset, and set up our cameras. We took a large number of photos, while a crowd of visitors closed in on us. Fortunately, our tripods kept the most curious away.

I like this image, with deep purple colors on the rock formations, and just a sliver of the last sun's rays.
