Description
Arizona's Grand Canyon National Park, 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.
When walking along the trail at Mather Point, I like to stop and peer through silhouetted trees (the rustic, gnarly Utah Juniper and Pinyon Pine), and view the Grand Canyon from the rim. It's as though I am peering through a window, into a secret world! Very few seem to stop to do that. It's amazing to see throngs of people just walking down the paved path, not even noticing these special scenic spots.
Towering in the distance are Zoroaster and Brahma Temple rock formations, so I call it, "Temple Through The Trees!"

Beautiful framing of the Grand Canyon through the trees. A different approach from the others.
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you, Charlene. I love to photograph through the trees. Especially at Grand Canyon, as it is as though you are looking into a secret world. It's a stop and smell the roses time. Most walk along the rim talking to each other or rushing along, and miss out on these gems.
Michael May
Beautifully framed, great work!
Janet Marie replied:
Michael! Thank you kindly for your wonderful words expressed. I really appreciate it!

This is such a FANTASTIC view point Janet; you definitely took the time to explore many of the hidden and often ignored routes and paths along this majestic wonder. And this is mage is a testament to the grandeur of the Grand Canyon. Very beautifully done. P.S. LOVE all your images from the GC. Keep'em coming if you have more.... no pressure.... LOL
Janet Marie replied:
Hany! Thank you for stopping by my gallery to share your wonderful comment about my photography. I really appreciate it. It actually is on the rim trail, most people are either on their phones while walking, or busy talking with each other taking no note of these open areas to glean. But I love trees, and love to have them frame an image. At Grand Canyon itโs like peering into a secret world. Actually I do have many Grand Canyon images yet to post, as I do of so many other places too. Hopefully I can add some more soon. I am delighted to know you love my Grand Canyon images. Janet๐

Very nice framing Janet Marie!!
Janet Marie replied:
Thank you Ruth! I love peering into the Grand Canyon from these hidden viewpoints like Eva said, like looking through a keyhole. A window into a secret world. Grand Canyon is out of this world. Mind-blowing!! I am so glad you decided to visit and enjoy!! ๐
Jerry Bokowski
Observant people are in for never ending view points along the canyon BETWEEN the big name view points, Janet. I see so many folks walking from main point to main point that are so distracted...talking to others, on their devices, looking straight ahead. This is a perfect example of the hundreds of different viewpoints along the way!....fav / like
Janet Marie replied:
Words taken right out of mouth!! Such special viewpoints that go unnoticed, but are so great for me because I can have the pleasure to be in awe in peace and tranquility!! And then try to capture that whole experience with the lens! Hoping others are affected the same way. And I think I have for some!! Thank you for the support with the like and favorite!! ๐๐๐๐
