Death Valley is one of my favorite locations but living on the East coast makes it difficult to get their at the right time of year. Before Covid, I had a trip planned for early March. Instead I guess I need to be content to pull out an old image from the archives.
I had my truck camper loaded up ready to travel. I was originally going to set out in April but got delayed. By the second week of March it was clear that was not a good idea. Maybe this Fall or Winter.
like the look from here, as well as the colors! January was amazing I have to say. A little cold at night, but very pleasant during the day (mid 60s) and there was standing water everywhere , and not a lot of people
Thanks for all the positive comments. Sometimes I cannot help but become attached to a photo because of the memories. It was a great memory. I walked the roughly 3 mile 20 Mule Team Road in both directions. The light kept changing as I walked through some sort of weird dreamscape. Death Valley can be that way.
Beautiful color and composition. I visit Death Valley quite often, but I have never been able to do this spot justice. Thanks for inspiring me to try again.
Interesting capture. You might consider a localized adjustment increasing contrast/dropping the blacks on the foreground leaving it to fade into the wonderfully murky background.
