Image shot at Grand Canyon at sunrise, after a failed astro photography attempt. Shot using a Canon 80D with an 18-200mm lens, with a tripod. It was windy in location, so the tripod had to be held down.

This is such an iconic spot, and in my opinion a very challenging image to capture, especially during sunrise and sunset! The image with such a bright sun co-existing with such deep shadows down into the Canyon begs for a graduated filter or a multi-exposure blending. And here comes the grain of salt...I might be applying this CTC to myself as I have similar (not as nice as yours) images.
