Passageway, Antelope Canyon Arizona, 1992

I made this photograph in 1992, when unguided tours of Antelope Canyon were permitted. They no longer are. Our Navajo Nation tribe member simply dropped us off at the entrance to the canyon in the morning and picked us back up in the afternoon. It was an ideal day and time for photographing the canyon. Antelope Canyon is an extremely difficult place to photograph due to the broad range between light and dark tones inside the canyon. The very low light in the shadows required long exposures  - I recall few being less than four minutes. I photographed 5 different scenes that day with my 4x5 inch view camera. In this one, I wanted to capture the depth between the foreground and background walls in this photograph, making it feel like you could walk into the picture.
