Photo Hunt #30: Thankful


IMG_0729, originally uploaded by M'roy.

There is a lot to be thankful for (life, family, job, roof over one's head, food on the table, etc). But for today's theme and entry I chose to share this Grand Canyon photo I took on February 17, 2009.

I am extremely thankful to have another chance to see Grand Canyon and to marvel at the grandeur and magnificence of this great vista with snow on the ground. I am thankful I was seeing it again with my husband. I've seen it in Spring and Winter, next mission to see it in Summer and Fall.

Happy Photo Hunting everyone. Wanna join? Click here.

  3. How amazing to see it Spring and Winter. I have seen it only in summer. Twice, but still. I've always been intrigued by the winter photos of it. This is beautiful.

  4. That is a great shot. The little people kind of portrayed us - very minute in the grand scheme of things.

  5. Lovely and awesome view.

    I've only been to the Grand Canyon once and it was on a foggy December morning many years ago. It was awful since I didn't get to see anything. The fog descended on the canyon and blocked what would have been a grand view. Sadly, I haven't had the chance to go back since. Someday maybe.

  37. I like this Grand Canyon shot with all the people enjoying a view that looks completely dangerous. Your shot gives us the nature of these outcroppings and also a picture of the far canyon's cloud shadows and color. Nicely done.

  41. I've seen it a few times. I vaguely remember a scattering of dusty white snow one time. Most of the time I've seen it at the beginning or end of Summer. It's very impressive but I was busy being jaded back then and didn't appreciate it nearly enough.
