I found this sculptural arrangement of red and black pumice stone near the

700-foot tall Eureka Dune in northern Death Valley NP last Winter. I think this

is a recent attempt by some modern human to leave a mark on the place and

not something created long ago by Native Americans, but I found it interesting

and difficult to photograph well. This image places the sculpture in context on

the dry lake bed that surrounds the enormous dune at the South end of

Eureka Valley. I suspect that if it is of recent origin the Park rangers have

probably already destroyed this formation. Does it have any meaning for you?

It might be interesting to try to take this shot from the very low angle (low to the ground), whereas you would focus more on the substructure of the formation, which I think is interesting, and will fool an eye of the exact scale of the thing. Then you would have small mountains in the background and none of the somewhat less interesting middle perspective of burned out grass and such. Just a thought! Interesting shot and a good find! I love Death Valley as well!

A poor translation of the above comment:

 

and you say me that my ftos are boring, laughter gives when seeing yours me, the light it is of the worse thing, the sky this totally burned, the snow without detail, learns to describe a photo, first time who I see that somebody says that a photo is boring, gives laughter me

 

 

Explanation: I decided to honestly rate this guys 5 very aveerage photos on the top page. I called a couple of them 'boring'. He responds this way. All I can say about this shot is that is it is not perfect by any means. But Saul seems used to superlative ratings only. Whatever.
