I really dig this shot, this and your previous posts have definitely inspired me to plan a trip to the Alvord desert.

Interesting how the vertical lines of the clouds at the top of the frame (kinda) mimic the vertical lines in the FG. Great image!

A nit! A nit! I found a nit! How about if you had shifted just a hair right to catch all the outline of that circle?
other than that though, Jeez Louise, Holy Moley, and Gimme a Break!

Marc,
You've got some great Alvord shots. You really worked that barren area. This one is freaky neat...I'm not 100% all over it...but it does have a cool factor

I'm posting a re-work of this one on ESS later. Check it out.
