  • With just a narrow crack in the ceiling of Upper Antelope Canyon near Page, Arizona, little sunlight reaches the floor by mid-afternoon. Violent flash floods sculpt the sandstone, leaving undulating, layered walls that appear violet or purple in the very faint indirect afternoon light. The Navajo people call Antelope Canyon Tsé bighánílíní dóó Hazdistazí, which means "the place where water runs through rocks." The light in the canyon was so dim at the time that this image was captured that it required a more than one-minute exposure to reveal the detail of the canyon walls.
