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.
