Trippy art- What Manhattan would look like in the Grand Canyon

Photographer Gus Petro went to Manhattan and took some pictures. Then he went to the Grand Canyon and took some pictures. Then he photoshopped them together, and the results are very pretty. Take a look in the gallery.

Way ahead of his time (like.so.many syfy types -- but even more so).
Still, I wish he'd spared W 96th St. in this one.

Oh my, please keep the canyon lovely as it is. And The New York Island needs to be along also. Both vibrant as themselves.

And yes, surreal.

Both canyons are beautiful in their own way. I prefer mother nature's to the man made one and agree both are vibrant.
Being a native desert rat I have a special place in my heart for the Grand Canyon.
