Description
Navajo Point in the Grand Canyon at 5:30 am. Many miss a good experience if they do not get up early to watch the sunrise in the Grand Canyon. From the time the sun first breaks the horizon, the colors are ever changing until about 10 am.
Navajo Point is located between Desert View and Lipan Point west of Desert View, the entrance road comes up quick coming from Desert View, so it is best to drive the speed limit or 5 mph slower.
Camping on the North and South Rims is generally restricted to established campgrounds and reservations are highly recommended, especially at the busier South Rim. There is at large camping available along many parts of the North Rim managed by Kaibab National Forest. Keep in mind North Rim campsites are only open seasonally due to road closures from weather and winter snowpack. All overnight camping below the rim requires a backcountry permit from the Backcountry Office Each year Grand Canyon National Park receives approximately 30,000 requests for backcountry permits. The park issues 13,000 permits, and close to 40,000 people camp overnight. The earliest a permit application is accepted is the first of the month, four months before the proposed start month.

NADINE & BOB, THIS IS SIMPLY AMAZING! AGAIN, LET ME SAY THE DETAIL YOU CAPTURED WITH YOUR PAINTING STROKES IS FANTASTIC! WHEN FIRST VIEWING THIS IMAGE LOOKING AT THE PEOPLE WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT CLOTHES THEY ARE WEARING AND COLORS, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE A GREAT PHOTOGRAPH, IT'S ONLY WHEN I ZOOM IN AT 100% YOU SEE THAT IT'S A PAINTING! THE SAME THING APPLIES TO THE GRAND CANYAN, THOSE LITTLE DETAILS IN THE ROCKS ARE REMARKABLE! YOU BOTH ARE TRULY MASTERS OF WHAT YOU DO! I WISH I HAD 1/10TH OF YOUR TALENT. SO MANY OF THE PAINTINGS THAT YOU AND NADINE PAINT, TRULY BELONG IN ART MUSEUMS! LES (F/V)

Mike, you take things literally, that statement simply meant that she began painting in 1946. She also has been using all mediums, of course she would not be using them before they were available, just like water soluble oils were not. Regardless of your "opinions" you are simply mistaken. You dont want believe someone can do something you can not do yet. I DEFY you to show me an "plugin" for Photoshop, that will create an image even close to what Nadine paints. Ive asked you to NAME it, and you do not. Nadine says all the time, "I'm not better, just a different artist. Perseverance is Priceless - Its not that Im smart: just persistent, persistence is the key to improving. Ive had 60 years of persistence." You once said "even Bob Ross could not paint like that." Again, you are mistaken. He could have, if he wanted to, but he developed HIS OWN STYLE. He wanted to paint FAST, to turn out as much work as possible, to make as much profit as possible... Nadine can also paint like that, using his style she can finish a painting in an hour or so, but _that_ is not HOW she wants to paint... We just dont care how much we get, we sell paintings for what the average person can afford not to royalty. The highest price she puts on any painting, is less than $1000, we have one now, that she will not sell for less than $975... You can try to be as insulting as you wish, but when you point a finger at others, YOU have three of them pointing at you... You "think" we sell our work too cheap, BUT, I notice you selling 8x10 Prints for LESS than ten dollars.... Is the Pot calling the kettle black...
