Visions of Havasupai
by Russ Nordstrand
Greetings everyone! I thought I’d share with you some of my recent images of Havasu Falls and the various waterfalls of Havasupai. These images are a collection of photographs taken over several years of trekking deep within the hallowed walls of Grand Canyon to visit this enchanting place. Havasupai is the last place within Grand Canyon to house a Native American village and it is known for it’s abundant waterfalls that take on a teal-blue color from various mineral deposits deep within the earth. The blue-green color of the water in contrast with the stark red-rock canyons, lush foliage and deep blue Arizona skies make Havasu Falls an incredible place to photograph.

AUTHOR
Russ Nordstrand is an award winning Landscape & Wildlife Photographer based in Homer, Alaska. His Fine Art Prints are hanging in private collections throughout the world and he runs Photography Tours & Workshops in the most beautiful and inspirational locations in the Western United States and beyond.
Russ has been hiking, backpacking, photographing and guiding people in the wilderness areas, deserts, canyons and mountains of the world since 1997. He has logged thousands of miles on the trail and for many years in the past decade over half of his nights were spent in a tent in some far flung outdoor destination.
His Photography reflects an awe and admiration of the great, wide and still wild world we live in. Often his subjects include towering canyon walls, mist shrouded mountain lakes or wildlife in their natural habitat. It also reflects a commitment to preserving these places for the health of our world and for those who come after.
It would be a lie to say he does it completely from an altruistic standpoint. Like any great outdoor photographer he loves the thrill of wild, remote places and the accomplishment of nailing that shot after waking up three hours before dawn and hiking in the dark!
