The Daily Post challenge is at: https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/narrow/
One of the narrowest places I have ever been to is Lower Antelope Canyon near Page, AZ. Walking through it, in many spots only one person at a time could pass through. The following photos attest to that.
This last photo was a surprise for me. I first heard the bird or birds chirping, and when I saw one I quickly took a shot before it flew away. If you can recognize what kind of bird it was, please let me know in a comment.

Amazing, unearthly place. I don’t know what the bird is. I took this picture of a chick in the same canyon years ago https://www.flickr.com/photos/inese_ie/2519323854/in/dateposted-friend/

The scenery there is stunning, and so are your photos! Sorry, I can’t help with the bird identification.

Thanks Jerry! Maybe it was some kind of nuthatch, but the image does not have enough details to positively identify this bird.

Stunning photography Hien ~ I was to drive down to Utah this coming week for an Outdoor Show and then a planned trip to Antelope or Bryce Canyon…however, due to work I had to call it off so these photos are going to have to do 🙂 Not a bad alternative!! Beautiful.

Good place to put on your list. Just remember that there is an Upper Antelope Canyon also, across the road from the Lower one.

First time I was in the area, I didn’t know about the canyons here. I was disappointed when we left the area and then discovered they were only a few miles from us.

These are gorgeous images and perfect for the theme. I could be mistaken but I think one of the first posts that really caught my eye on your blog was a canyon image.

Thanks Sue, and you are right. The first photo above was published 3 years ago. This time, I reprocessed it with new software, and added two unpublished photos.

Hien–these colors are amazing. I cannot imagine what it was like to see this in person. So happy you were able to capture it on film to share. Thank you!

Lois, before going there, I had seen photos of Antelope Canyon.But nothing was like seeing it in person, even if at times you had to do some contortion to get through narrow spots.

Wow, Hien. Is it possible your photos are prettier than the real scene? It looks too pretty to be true 😉 But I have heard how pretty the place is. I have to visit there one of these days. Thanks for sharing. (I thought it is a person, a thinker, in the last photo. Ha.)
Have a great day.

Antelope Canyon is a marvel of nature, and it may even look better in real life. You should go there some day, Helen!
