Mystery Canyon - Zion Narrows

A shot of the Zion Narrows from the technical canyon, Mystery Canyon and the last shot this camera ever took. I slammed the camera barrel on the mountainside during a rappel and it never worked again. This was a fun trip because it was the first descent of the canyon that year. The Zion Narrows we full and we had to swim most of the way out.

Nice...

...color, composition, perspective. Too bad about the camera, but it's not a bad way to go out. I have a shot like that too. Dropped my camera on a rock just after I took it...

Re: Nice...

Thanks! It does make the shot more memorable! On the good side, this camera was only 3mp and my new one is 8mp. ;)

Your shot is really nice!

Nice Picture

This is the first shot I have seen of the Zion Narrows quite like this. It is a neat perspective. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Nice Picture

Scott has one that is similar. You having to be hanging on a rope at the top of that cliff to get that shot though, so it would not be all that common. It's one of my favorites that I have. Thanks :)
