Antelope Canyon Sandstone Sentinel
This photo was captured at the very heart of Lower Antelope Canyon near Page, AZ. Our Navajo guide took us down into the canyon and we shot and explored at every turn. I’d been here before, and it was a treat to come back.
As we walked along, our hushed voices echoing off the canyon walls, I only half-heartedly listened to our guide. Most of my attention was directed towards the wonderful curves and sandstone textures that surrounded us. The cool, inviting air in the canyon was intoxicating - especially when compared to the scalding, nearly 100 degree temps on the desert above.
Each corner presented a new photo opportunity. Grant and I would stop at nearly every turn for a photo. Around one such turn was the amazing formation you see in the photo above. I usually go for more “real” names, but to me this formation looks like an all-seeing eye, watching over the canyon. So, the name kind of picked itself in this case.
The incredible colors are a direct result of the reflected light that illuminates the photo. The sun was hitting a canyon wall directly above us, and the reflection off the rock creates the light source for the photo.
About Our Prints....
We currently sell both individual prints and completely framed and ready-to-hang prints. Our framed prints are professionally matted, mounted and framed.
Here's a sample of our basic mat and frame:
Framed prints purchased though us are generally a better deal than taking a loose print to your local frame shop since we have a pretty significant discount that we pass along to you. When you receive your print in the mail, it's ready to hang and even comes with the hardware for doing so.
Please note that if you'd like another type of print (canvas for example) or another frame style, we can certainly accommodate you, just use the contact us page and we'll customize the artwork to make it perfect for your home.
Warranty
Our framed prints are guaranteed for as long as you own them against wear, fading, or deterioration. Loose prints are also guaranteed for as long as you own them provided you have them framed under glass using archival materials. We want you to LOVE your prints, so we offer a refund as long as the print or framed print is returned in like new condition within 30 days.
Signature
All prints are signed in one of the lower corners (usually the right hand corner).
Delivery
Delivery time varies and depends on a number of factors, but we always strive to get your prints delivered to you as quickly as possible. I personally inspect each and every piece before it leaves our building. If I'm out of town taking more photos, it can cause a delay, but a good rule of thumb is that a loose print will ship within 2 weeks and a framed print within 3 weeks. That time is significantly shorter if I'm in town at the time the order is placed. If you need a print done by a certain date, you can contact me and I'll be happy to give you an estimated delivery date.
Discounts
We are now offering quantity discounts if you are interested in two or more pieces. Simply contact me with the sizes and names of the images you are interested in and I will be happy to get you a quote. The more pieces you order, the better the discount.
Thanks for your interest!

Those pictures are amazing. I am wondering if you could give us an idea if the hike to get to the canyon was hard or easy? I live in Arizona and that infomation would help,
I want to see you do a book of your photos and notes. You write in a nice breezy way that is interesting and gives the reader the feeling of “being there.” Think about it! I’ll proof and edit for you FREE!
