This is just a gallery of photos from the first day in the Grand Canyon. Not in any particular order, either.
To see the photos in full format (and, in the case of vertical images, the full view), double-click on any one image, then use “previous” and “next” buttons to move around.
Yes, of course, the images are copyrighted. Says so at the bottom of the page AND in the image IFTC’s. Trip members–read the details, though. You got rights! And if you can’t figure out the who’s-who, just email me, OK?
