I think the best comps would come from being down in the canyon as oppossed to being above it. Take the time to hike down a bit. IF you can get an ND Grad filter you could save the skies as you compose the cliff tops.

I think if you're shooting at the Grand Canyon, you might actually want to see it, if you hike down, you could be anywhere.

Thats true Pookie; I meant to suggest showing the canyon while not exactly being on top. Shots of the canyon receding into infinty would be cool.

Thanks

Is that a gradiant filter? like dark to light? any tips on where to get one? I assume you mean the filter would go from dark top to light bottom to compensate for brighter skies?

Any idea how far down to hike get an infinity look? Does that mean the camera wouldnt see the top rim of the canyon but instead I would shoot down at the talent and the background would show the opposite walls depths of the canyon?
