In May 2002 I was privileged to participate in a
photographic expedition organised by Michael Reichmann of Luminous
Landscape. The workshop involved rafting the length of the Colorado
River between Lees Ferry and Pearce Ferry, approximately 270 miles
downstream.
Given the lack of facilities to recharge batteries
I decided not to bring my Canon EOS D30 digital camera; instead opting
for the Canon EOS 1V and its immediate predecessor the EOS1N. Lenses
ranged from a Sigma 14mm super wide angle through to a Canon 100-400 IS
zoom. I don't think there was any lens that didn't get used although my
recently acquired Canon 24mm Tilt Shift saw more than its fair share of
use. I shot 32 rolls of Fuji Provia F 100 transparency film. The
following page shows only a small sample of the many images I captured.
