It is one of America’s greatest natural wonders – a spectacular scar in the dusky soil ofArizona that ranks as one of the best-known landmarks on the planet.

這是美國最美的自然景觀之一，是亞利桑那灰黃的土地上一道深深的傷疤，也是時尚最著名的景觀之一。
Indeed, show most people a photograph of the Grand Canyon, and they should recognise itinstantly – those steep cliffs falling away to the silver ribbon of the River Colorado farbelow; the Canyon walls dancing through a rainbow of pinks, reds, oranges and browns.
這裏山勢陡峻，層巒疊嶂，山下的科羅拉多河像是一條銀色的帶子流淌在五彩的山間。不錯，大多數人都能通過照片就能一眼認出這是科羅拉多大峽谷。

So it is rare to see photographs that capture this geographical glory in a less-seen the images here manage that.

所以要在如此少見的光線中捕捉到這一地理奇觀實屬不易，但以下這些照片做到了。
The pictures show the less-visited Havasu Canyon, which flows north into the Colorado

immediately to the west of the portion of the National park which plays host to the majorityof tourists.

這張照片展示了少有人問津的哈瓦蘇峽谷，谷底的河流向北流入科羅拉多河，是遊人衆多的國家公園的西

部的一部分。
Havasu Canyon is part of the adjacent Havasupai Indian Reservation. And while it is alsoaccessible to the public, it does not receive the footfall of the main national-park space.

哈瓦蘇大峽谷也是附近的哈瓦蘇印第安保護區的一部分，雖然也向大衆開放，卻沒有國家公園主要區域那樣遊客紛至沓來。

The photos show a snapshot of waterfalls within this smaller canyon; the large, double-chuted Havasu Falls and the smaller Mooney Falls – as well as the almost hidden Royal ArchCreek Falls, which is part of Grand Canyon National can be visited, although plenty of leg-work and hard hiking is required to reach the more off-path spots.

這些照片展示了這個小峽谷裏衆多瀑布：較大的雙道哈瓦蘇瀑布，較小的暮泥瀑布，隱祕的阿西王室山泉瀑布（這是大峽谷國家公園的一部分）。所有景點都向外公開，只是“世之奇偉瑰怪非常之觀,常在於險遠”，要到更多好地方還少不了走路。

Water at its most wonderful: This breathtaking image captures Havasu Falls - the main cascade on Havasu Creek in Arizona

最美的水景: 照片中捕捉到的哈瓦蘇瀑布美得讓人窒息，這是亞利桑那州哈瓦蘇溪最主要的瀑布。
A different take on the theme: Depending on the volume of water, Havasu Falls splits into two distinct torrents

不一樣的主題：由於水量大，哈瓦數瀑布分成兩支不同的水流。
