2025 Grand Canyon Thunder River (IV): Esplanade Sunset
Sunsets in the Grand Canyon: There is nothing like them:
Imagine our surprise when we saw an object and a trail rising up in the sky! Was this the end? No, just a SpaceX launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base.
Definitely the sunsets and moonrises were much different in the Grand Canyon than anywhere else I've been. With less atmosphere to block them and occurring generally much higher than horizon level, they were memorable. Perhaps more memorable though was when the moon was full when I was down in the canyon. I can only compare it to trying to sleep while someone shines a flashlight in your eyes.
Comments are welcome (and necessary, for good conversation). If you could take the time to be kind and not practice profanity, it would be appreciated. Thanks for posting!

ReplyDeleteQuite the series of photos TB, especially number four and five. Plus a bonus of man-made Sky Lights eh?
