14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
Painting the Grand Canyon - Desert View

There is an abundance of beauty in the Grand Canyon, and everyone is milling around with their camera or phone, trying to get that perfect shot. This man was totally in the zone among the crowd, completely ignoring everything but his art. He was taking the slow route to beauty, and I love how he became part of the awe-inspiring scene we were all trying to capture.
