First Place

The Way Forward by Larry Pollock

Larry writes about his image:

Returning on October 9, 2023, to Lower Antelope Canyon after a 12-year hiatus, it still held all the beauty, light, and magic I remembered. This slot canyon leads into Lake Powell, Arizona. Tours are run by Navajo Nation-authorized tour companies. Due to its worldwide popularity, Antelope Canyon is busy. Our guide gave us plenty of latitude to take photos while our group of ten moved through the narrow passages up to 150 feet below the surface of the desert.

I have a love for black and white photography, taking the red rocks and pairing them down to the essence of light and textures. This image was handheld using my Fuji X-T4, Fuji 16-55mm f/2.8 lens.

It is always rewarding and fun to bring images back from Susan and my trips to share with our fellow Wild Rivers Photography Club photographers. The comments and input club members share about their photographs help everyone improve and create images we want on our walls at home.

Congratulations, Larry, on another beautiful image! Look for Larry’s image coming soon in the Daily Courier!

Never Enough Sticks by Susan Sheets

Susan writes about her image: The Blue Heron Rookery at Whitehorse Park is an interesting place to observe Heron nesting and rearing behavior. The Herons nest very high in the old Cottonwoods not far from the edge of the Rogue river. Shot with an Olympus OM-1 at 800mm, 1200sec, f6.3, ISO 640.
