This Japanese maple tree in full bloom had the most vibrant canopy i’d ever seen, especially with all the lush greens i’d worked with so far throughout Oregon. Deceiving in size, I had walked past this a number of times in search of the “big maple”, only to realize the actual tree is maybe 5’ tall. Sticking my lens in underneath this tree yielded an amazing perspective of twisting branches, colourful leaves, and lush green moss and quickly became one of my fondest memories of this trip.

The bend is an amazing geological feature located just South of Page, AZ where the Colorado River meanders around the horseshoe-shaped canyon. An easy hike in, and no ropes or barriers to prevent you from making the 1000+ ft descent, gave me an excellent opportunity to set up multiple cameras on the very edge, resulting in this panoramic image.
