The winners that made rock into a new patterns and shapes that dominate the view:

Third place, Marcel de Jong (view this original size to appreciate the detail):


Second place, Markus Grompe, showing an unreal scene of multicolored rocks and shapes:


And the winner, Jola Dziubinska, with a classic view of Antelope Canyon. This image is a bit more complex/busy than the usual Canyon shot and kept my interest:


Jola, your turn!

Wow, thank you very much for the winning first place! The Antelope Canyon is an amazing spot for a photographer, I was really happy to be there and seeing its beauty.
Congratulations to Marcus and Marcel, to Honorary pics and to all participants for showing us so many different rocks with their interesting textures, shapes and surrounding landscapes. It was a wonderful subject for the contest.
