This photo shows the interior of Arizona’s famous Antelope Canyon X – one of the most picturesque slot canyons in the world. A shaft of sunlight streaming from above illuminates the narrow rock walls, revealing their extraordinary textures and rich colours – from cool purples and blues to intense shades of red and orange. Natural rock formations, smoothed by thousands of years of water and wind, create an almost abstract landscape where light becomes the main character.
This photo captures the magical moment when the sun peers into the canyon, giving it an almost mystical quality.
