Miraculous creation

A canyon created by erosion from Navajo Sandstone. Carved and polished by water, wind and mud, this has become an extraordinary sculpture created by Mother Nature. If you have not been there yourself, it is hard to imagine that this is real.
For me, it was a dream come true when I was able to hike through this. While standing outside the canyon gasping hot air, with temperatures over 35 degrees, we descended into the coolness of the canyon.
A hodgepodge of deep shadows, harsh lights and the time you were allowed made photography a huge challenge. A challenge that, of course, I didn't want to shy away from. I had to and would come home with good pictures.
Far too soon we were through the canyon, and back in the scorching heat.
Antelope Canyon, a natural wonder and recommended for everyone!
Hasdestwazi, the Navajo name for the canyon, which means "Spiral Rock Arches."

My name is Gerry van Roosmalen, a professional photographer and author. After some travels in the business world, I decided to radically change the helm in 2002 and to fully focus on my passion: photography. Between 2002 and 2004 I visited the fotovakschool in Apeldoorn where I graduated in the courses of portrait and reportage.

In 2006 I decided to study documentary photography. In 2009 my first book was published about a project that I carried out in Greenland: "Why Greenland ..." This book is only available as an i Book.

In 2012 my book "Ode to Iceland" appeared. In this book I combined the images I shot during my various tours in Iceland with texts in which I tried to express my impressions and feelings that I experienced myself when I first faced the spectacular or sometimes just lovely landscapes of Iceland. The english book "Ode to Iceland" can be ordered in the iBook store

In my Webshop I collect the most beautiful images I made during my travels or sometimes just in the studio. If you do not have the right image for your taste, please feel free to contact me. Perhaps my archive with images contains something suitable for your home or business. Gerry@1ivision.nl
