Just North East of Page, Antelope Canyon awaits the sun. Mid-day, sunbeams dance a Canyon Tango for those of us who venture into these deep canyons. The dance is brief, and needs to be watched many times. We ventured into the mid section around 10 am, and our guide took us from one end to the other quickly, pointing out places where we will want to get good shots as light started to climb down into the depths. About 20 minutes before the highlight of the day, when the sun dances across the bottom sand in the larger cavern rooms, we were joined by 20 photographers from an Arizona Highways photography trip! We stood shoulder to shoulder, and in some cases had to shout at someone for just standing in the way. I asked the guide which days of the week are the least likely to fight the crowds, and he smiled a reply, "Only when the rain falls, and then you would not want to be caught in here.
