Devil's Golf Course, Death Valley

1. Death Valley Natural Arch
2. The girl is walking in Badwater, the lowest point in the north american continent, -282 ft below sea level. As you walk out into the basin, it starts relatively dry and firm but slowly builds up to wet until you hit a ~ 1 inch deep lake. Death Valley had a pretty substantial storm hit it in mid-October, dumping 2 inches of water in an hour. Death Valley typically has 2 inches of water in a year.

Wow! That background makes that picture even better. Btw, nice <broken> reflection of her in the water.

I've seen plenty of cool moon shots with something in the background before where I thought to myself how ridiculously lucky the person got for it to line up that way.

Well tonight was my turn! Cell tower "Transit" in front of the moon! How cool is that?



Just the moon:



And while I was lined up with tower I experimented with some long exposures. Lot of light pollution mind you, my outside Christmas lights probably did not help.

Great pictures Mike!

P.S., can you guys put the shutter speed, f stop number, etc? I'm still learning what's good on what situation.

@SwiftWind - Look for an EXIF viewer for whatever browser you're on. Then you can just right-click on the photo and get the details.

Epic shots Mike.

I wasn't able to get the crazy star shot I've been wanting this time. But this shot gives an idea of the peaceful spot I was camping out at that night.
