I was just there two weeks ago. I did take the photo tour. Lots of people even on the photo tour. I didn't get good color on the first few shots then switch to kelvin and got more realistic color. I will post a few soon.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in the Upper Antelope Canyon in Arizona. I was on a road trip in 2012 and that's when I took it. It's a well known place unfortunately so I had to look up all the time to take pictures without people in it.

Time

It was around 2pm in the afternoon. But you should book a photographer tour in the morning or evening when it's less crowded.

Lighting

Only natural light.

Equipment

I used my Nikon D700 and I believe my 20mm lens. Tripods are only allowed on the photographer tour which I didn't book.

Inspiration

The shapes and color of this canyon are just breath taking. You can't go there and not photograph them.

Editing

Just a little color correction and contrast adjustments.

In my camera bag

My Nikon D700, a 20mm f2.8, 50mm f1.4 and a 70-300mm alrounder.

Feedback

Be aware of basic camera settings and book the photographer tour cause it's less crowded and you are allowed to use a tripod plus you get more time in the canyon.
