Badwater Sunset

After a long, gray (and rainy) day spent in Death Valley, I wasn't too hopeful about capturing a sunset. I headed south about a mile south of Badwater and wandered out onto the salt flats and set up my camera. The sunset was looking like it was going to be unremarkable, when the light broke out under the clouds casting shadows upwards from the Panamint Range, and for a few moments, the light was amazing. Here is one of my images from that evening.

Nice photo. 6/6 anon rate.

Wonderful light, and great use of the lens.

The foreground is stunning. The tone of the foreground and the near focus absolutely make the piece. The rays over the Panamint's add a final excellent touch.

great...very good portfolio. best wishes

Great shot!!! Very well done. I like the contrast between the blue salt pan and the red light. Very cool indeed!

Perfect shot. Great Moment captured.
