Light beam in Upper Antelope Canyon was formed by erosion of Navajo Sandstone
Light beam in Upper Antelope Canyon was formed by erosion of Navajo Sandstone, primarily due to flash flooding where during monsoon season, rainwater runs into the extensive basin above the slot canyon sections, picking up speed and sand as it rushes into the narrow passageways. Over time the passageways are eroded away, making the corridors deeper and smoothing hard edges in such a way as to form characteristic flowing shapes in the rock

EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step into the enchanting world of Upper Antelope Canyon, where time has sculpted a breathtaking spectacle. This print captures a mesmerizing light beam that gracefully dances through the ancient corridors, revealing the secrets of nature's artistry. As if painted by an invisible hand, this ethereal beam was born from the erosion of Navajo Sandstone over countless years. During monsoon season, when rainwater cascades down into the basin above, it gains momentum and carries with it grains of sand. With each rush through these narrow passageways, Mother Nature carves deeper canyons and smooths away sharp edges to create flowing shapes that seem almost alive. In this frozen moment captured by David Hosking from FLPA Images, we witness a harmonious convergence between rock and light. The vibrant hues bouncing off the walls tell tales of ancient times while casting an otherworldly glow upon all who dare to venture here. Antelope Canyon stands as a testament to the raw power and beauty found within our natural world. It reminds us that even in darkness there is light waiting to be discovered – just like life itself. So let your imagination run wild as you gaze upon this photograph; let yourself be transported to a realm where beams become brushstrokes on stone canvases. Allow your senses to be awakened by this stunning display orchestrated solely by nature's hands.
