Monument Valley sunrise and Antelope Canyon

So if you think you have been outside and it has been dark...you have no idea what dark is till you drive through Monument Valley at 4 A.M. DARK...I mean really dark.  Woke up at 4 A.M. to go meet our Navajo Guide to take us into Monument Valley to watch the sunrise.  Loaded the car up to the sound of thunder in the distance.  Had some rain on the 20 minute drive and almost hit a wild horse as well.  Meet the guide and saw the most amazing sunrise ever.  We spent about 3 hours taking photos and sightseeing in the valley.  Many many cool photos.  There was also a LARGE movie production going on out there as well.  So after the tour was done we hit up Gouldings Lodge for breakfast and saw there museum.  Lots of cool old movie stuff.  Hit the road running to Page Arizona to see Antelope Canyon.  After some confusion there we got on a regular tour....as we had missed the private photography tour.  It was kinda a pain and tons of people. Packed into a truck for the ride out there.  Tons of people in the slot canyon.  BUT made do and got what i hope will be some great shots.  Special thanks to La La our tour guide for being awesome and giving us a nice shortcut that shaved off a hour of drive time to the Grand Canyon...which is where we are now.  Ate dinner and ready to crash out in our little cabin.  So for now here is a photo I did at Antelope Canyon today.  Remember it was packed with people...which just made it more of a challenge to get shots like this oh and no tripod which made it difficult.  They were not allowed on the regular tours.
Isiah said he did not want to write anything tonight but will give a full report tomorrow morning!:)
