About	my last post from Antelope Canyon (I'll surely post some more in the future but I have to go ahead with my travel's pictures). Do you see the lion's head in the right part of the picture. It's appear to me when I look at the picture, but not when I made the photography, even the ray of light add an eye to the head :) Next stop horseshoe bend.

though a bit late on comment but I haven't seen this shot before (luckily this image on the front page today)...and i must say that this is wonderfully taken. perfect exposure and composition.

jacques brisebois {K:73883} 3/1/2008

this is a real paradise for photographs, and just being there is a pure moment of extasy. the colors, texture, light, everything is perfect.
thanks for your real kind comment.

your comment is sweet sounds for me George, thanks a lot for this so kind comment, really appreciate.

George Marks {K:15437} 2/27/2008

I've seen numerous renditions of these slot canyons over the years, but yours really got to me. When I was a kid I lived in Page... almost from the beginning when they scraped off the top of the mesa. It was literally like living on the old west frontier. For a child it was a gift from God. All those glorious cliffs to climb on and sand dunes to play in. My Dad took me to this place for the first time in 1958. It was like another world. For the next couple of years he would show friends down to this place so they could make their photographs. It was a challenge because of both the light and the water. We had to be careful of flash floods, and it seemed as though the light was always changing. I learned some new interesting words from photographers as they tried to keep up with the light. Your interpretation is the best I've seen. I'm sure that using a very wide angle lens helped some, but your caught it right before you released the shutter. Well done.

José Azevedo {K:9845} 7/5/2007

Yes, I see the lion's head. I see the light, too. No, I don't see dead people ;-)

Amazing, Jacques. Congratulations! This must've been quite a fantastic family trip. It's a route that's in my plans, who knows someday I might be able to make it real.

that's all mother nature creation and I didn't have to manipulate the picture anyway. just from the camera. This place is a real paradise for photography. Many thanks for your real great words in your comment, I really appreciate. Happy Easter my friend.

Gianluca Govoni {K:879} 4/4/2007

Ciao Jacques, ti ringrazio per i commenti che hai lasciato sulle mie foto. Mi stupisce che questa foto "magica" non abbia ricevuto lo staff choice, l'editors choice, bip, il featured donors,... e tutti gli altri premi che ci sono. L'atmosfera è così suggestiva che sembra finta. Ma è vera? Quel raggio di luce l'hai amplificato in post produzione? Comunque sia... ti faccio i miei più sinceri complimenti. Ciao. Gianluca

H L {K:11377} 3/24/2007

You welcome, Jac! I truly like good works and praise my fellow photographers for it, but in UF I have been very discouraged because many of my comments never been reply in a simple thanks... :):) that’s all I wended
Harry

jacques brisebois {K:73883} 3/24/2007

blame it on mother nature Harry, I just had to push on the button :)

R. M. B. {K:1671} 3/23/2007

Truely amazing!
It took me awhile to see the lion's head because I kept being distracted by the tiny face to the left , high up near the small beam of light.
You have captured something quite magical. Well done.

Astrid Quast {K:1254} 3/7/2007

Peter Marin {K:243} 3/7/2007

Remarkable photo Jacques. I only saw the lion after you mentioned the light forming the eye......I see the lion only when I squint my eyelids lol
All the best.

Joe Johnson

{K:8529} 3/7/2007

It's a 'cathedral', and the sort of place the park service could rent out for receptions and conferences and such. Be nice if it were kept empty like this, however. That's really capturing that scene. It's a brilliant photo.

Fred Lord {K:4844} 3/7/2007

Jacques: Lovely, lovely, lovely. I may have to go down there someday. I don't think I can improve on this one though. Thanks for your comments on my Great Blue Heron shot.

Craig Hanson {K:7836} 3/6/2007

Magnificent! That's one place I must see!
