This is very nice, feels cozy, despite the vastness, and romantic. I think the latter because of the people included in the frame and the special time of the day, not to mention the very special place Badwater is, and shows here. Now, if only they had put a bench as they did at Zabriskie ...
Nice play with the light Charlie. I like the gradients here, but the people kinda mess it up a bit for me. They can easily be cloned out unless you consider them as a scale for the overall scenery....
Thanks Ray, Santiago and Greg.
Interesting thoughts about the people in the image. I agree with both.
It boils down to the fact that the people were there, so I included them.
My next post will be from the same basic location- with no people in the shot. Taken on a different day.

It's a beauty of a sunset, Charlie.
It's made even more beautiful by viewing it under these flourscent lights at work right now... Makes me yearn for natural light!
Glad you enjoy the pic, Tim.
Hop in your car and take US 395 south. It's the right time of the year for Death Valley.
Alternatively, you can turn off all the lights in your office and work by natural light .
