Hi Chris,
Thanks! It is challenging to create new perspectives for a well published subject like Antelope Canyon. I got a description on how to locate the canyon from a local in Utah, and then I drove there looking for the place. A Navajo Indian (Frank) roped me down the next morning. I have no clue how I got the courage to do such activities!

Awesome! Great creative use of a fisheye!

Hi Vladhed,

Thanks. I had to do something to make the image different from the circular fisheye image that most people dislike.
 
Canon 24mm/2.8 with Canon F1N: Late autumn in Vermont. I used Fujichrome Velvia 50, rated at ASA 40. I placed the camera close to ground level on a tripod. The vertical perspective looked nicer to me than a horizontal one for this shot.

I like the 15mm c/v lens a lot but there was a learning curve when I first got it.....I am also a fan of the 28mm elmarit, I think focusing with the 28mm is a joy but I don't like the fact that I can't see what is going on in the bottom right corner.........anyways.....I hope you like the photos....

Cheers, Michael

Hi Raid:

That Antelope Canyon shot looks familiar 😉

It is a gorgeous part of the world, isn't it?

Even though it's not taken with an evil SLR, here's a wide shot using a Leica M6 TTL and CV 21/4 combo with a 2x ND filter.

That is why you need an evil slr!
 
Made last week, these are shot with the wide end of a 24-120mm VR Nikkor on an N80:

Hi Mat,
It sure is a beautiful spot. The inside of the lower Antelope Canyon is not that large, so it is easy to get similar looking images. The one you posted has great reddish color. You must have waited until the early afternoon hours. I had to leave by 10:00am.
