Canyon Light
This scene is from a 1997 trip to Big Bend National Park where the steep canyon walls were a patchwork of light and shade and, most of all, a respite from the oppressive heat of the higher elevations. The riparian area was quiet and peaceful….with an occasional Mexican riding horseback and selling souveniers from the other side of the Rio Grande…and occasional Vermillion Flycatchers darting around in their brilliant red plumage.
