Even though they have been photographed countless times, it is like entering a different world and there is always something wonderful and different to capture in this unique and magical place. Considered sacred by the Navajo people, the light coming into both the Upper and Lower slot canyons creates constantly changing patterns and shadows in a myriad of different colors and hues.

Great title (that's what I would have used also). How did you get the sand to fall long enough to snap the shot? Congrats on your BTL award - very appropriate! :)
