Description
Arizona’s Grand Canyon National Park (USA), is one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World and its vastness humbles the artist and photographer. It is such a joy to attempt to capture its beauty, needing to be in the right place at the right time.
This is a famous landmark at Arizona's Grand Canyon National Park. Named by geologist Charles Dutton in the late 1800's, Isis Temple after ancient monuments of Ancient Egypt. This wonderful August morning sunrise, was full of atmosphere, with rain, lightning, giving a marvelous morning glow at Mather Point! Creating lights and shadows to the Canyon's famous landmarks, Isis Temple, Cheops Pyramid, and Plateau Point. I loved how the Canyon was lit up, amidst a rainy backdrop, creating "MATHER'S MAJESTY!"

Debby Pueschel
WOW...stunning! FL
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you, Debby, for checking this out! I really appreciate the visit to my gallery. It was a most stunning sunrise indeed. August morning at Grand Canyon National Park South Rim. A huge crowd showed up, but left too soon to miss all this. We are so glad we didn't follow the crowd, because the wow factor was amazing.
Michelle Meenawong
wow Janet, spectacular shot fav
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you so much, Michelle. A spectacular sunrise at Grand Canyon National Park, indeed. I have a 60" x 48" painting of this photograph, hanging in my living room, called Transcendent Golden Dawn. I am happy to know that you have chosen it as one of your favorites. I truly appreciate it!
Jane Selverstone
Wonderful capture of dramatic lighting at Mather Point!
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you, Jane. It was an exceptional sunrise at Grand Canyon National Park, that morning. A morning storm caused many to leave in disappointment. However, little did they know what awaited those of us who stayed. Less of a crowd. My husband painted a huge painting of this event. It beautifully adorns my personal living space.
Greta Foose
You captured a special moment at THE canyon to share with us.
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you, Greta. It was indeed a special moment. To experience an early morning sunrise storm like this. Most people left in disappointment. Little did they know what was to come. The GRANDeur of Grand Canyon National Park South Rim.

A stunning capture! l/f

Nikolyn McDonald
Hard to pick from among your many Grand Canyon masterpieces, Janet Marie. Love the play of light and shadow in this one, though.
Janet Marie replied:
So generous of you to say, Nikolyn. I really appreciate knowing how you feel. My husband used this as a reference photo for a 60" x 48" painting. It was a unique sunrise at Grand Canyon. I was so glad I was not like so many who left in disappointment at the rainy weather. But those of us who stuck around, proved to be most exhilarating. I can't take any credit for the atmospheric conditions that gave this beauty. It was about being there to take in the moment, and remember it with the help of the camera. Thank you for your visit and your choice!
