About the Traveling ExhibitThis is a featured page

Clouds from Imperial PointA journey across 280 miles of canyon and 125 years of exploration, Lasting Light: 125 Years of Grand Canyon Photography is an exhibition that features 60 contemporary images of the Grand Canyon, selected by leaders in the photography field. Depicting everything from pine forests and waterfalls to rainbows, wildlife, and majestic mesas, these pictures truly capture the diversity of the canyon.

But the 26 contemporary photographers were not the first who tried to capture the beauty of the canyon on film.
The exhibition also includes a number of archival images dating back to the earliest days of canyon
photography--the 1870s. We learn about the John Wesley Powell's expedition and about scientific journies that
followed, each with a designated team to carry and manipulate the cumbersome equipment of the day.

This exhibition would not have been possible without the collaboration of the Grand Canyon Association. We would also like to thank the National Park Service, geologist Wayne Ranney, and writer/photographer Stephen Trimble, whose book was the foundation of this exhibition.
