Nice use of foreground framing to emphasize the scale of the canyon.

All are great but 3rd shot is just terrific!

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

Lovely shots. Having stuff in the foreground works nicely in these.

Love your use of the trees in the foreground! The third shots very cool, I've never seen this view of the Grand Canyon before.
