I mentioned Antelope Canyon in yesterday's post. A couple of hours after posting I saw the article "Stau am Sonnenstrahl" (sorry, German only) where it says that Antelope Canyon has up to 3000 visitors per day. THREE THOUSAND! If that doesn't turn you off already, and you want to go there with your tripod, just pay $46. Yep. forty six dollars to take a walk through a ~1300ft. (400m) long canyon with a camera and a tripod in a crowd of people.
Yet if you do a Google image search (yep, just click the link, I did all the work for you:) most of the photos look so... quiet, still, serene, as if there's no one in that canyon except the photographer. It's nothing new, but isn't that a wonderful example how much betrayal photography actually is?
PS: As I go through my older posts, I notice a lot of missing photos. If you stumble over any such posting, please drop me a note so that I can fix it. Note to self: never embed photos from a Picasa Web Album or some other source into a blogpost. Always upload/copy the photo to the dedicated Blogger album. :P
