The American Southwest contains some of the world's most memorable landscapes like the soaring sandstone arches at Arches; plateaus eroded into a forest of spires at Bryce Canyon, Utah; Monument Valley at sunrise; and the Colorado River as it cuts through the magnificent Grand Canyon. Our images capture the ancient cultures that have called the southwest home; see ancient petroglyphs; the cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde and Canyon de Chelly; the Indian pueblos at Acoma and Taos; and the historic Spanish Colonial architecture of Santa Fe. Our photos capture the outdoor lifestyle of the Southwest from shooting the rapids of the Colorado River; hiking up to Delicate Arch in Arches or down to White House in Canyon de Chelly. Plus Zion, Las Vegas, the Balloon Fiesta and historic photos of Edward Curtis.
