The Grand Canyon bathed in sunset
The Grand Canyon stretches across northern Arizona. As the sun dips in the evening, its majestic rock walls begin to glow red. The patterns carved into the rock layers tell a story of millions of years, and the beauty of the moment woven by light and shadow is breathtaking. I captured this scene, like a grand painting created by nature, along with the stillness of dusk.
