People caught in Light beam in Upper Antelope Canyon was formed by erosion of Navajo Sandstone

People caught in 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 a world where nature takes center stage, as beams of light gracefully pirouette through the enchanting corridors of Upper Antelope Canyon. This awe-inspiring print captures the magical moment when people become part of this breathtaking performance. Formed over centuries by the relentless erosion of Navajo Sandstone, these slot canyons have transformed into Mother Nature's very own theater. During monsoon season, rainwater cascades down from above, gaining momentum and carrying along tiny grains of sand. As if choreographed by an invisible hand, this powerful rush sculpts smooth curves and deepens the passageways with every passing year. And there you have it – a masterpiece created by time itself! The result? A mesmerizing interplay between light and rock that leaves visitors spellbound. As sunbeams penetrate through narrow openings high above, they illuminate the canyon floor like celestial spotlights on eager performers below. In this scene captured by FLPA photographer David Hosking, we witness humans caught in nature's spotlight – their faces aglow with wonder as they bask in this ethereal glow. It's a reminder that even amidst Earth's grandeur, we too are but small players in its magnificent theater. So come one, come all! Step into Upper Antelope Canyon for an experience that will leave you breathless and remind you just how extraordinary our planet truly is
