Headed to the Salt Flats near Badwater. Went for a long walk out into the middle of the salt pan. A very intersting and stark spot.
Shot around sunset in january 2007. Coldest it has been in DV in many years....

Consists of a 10 image stitch of vertical images. Stitched via Panorama Factory.

Njoy

Nice one here, Eric. I like the contrasts between the various surrounding foothills and mountains, as well as the vast openess of the flats themsleves of course.

Hey Eric,

I really like the low perspective here. The golden light on the flats is wonderful and I also like the rich color of the ridge on the right. My only wish is that there were a bit more of the foreground flats and a tiny bit less of the sky - to bring more emphasis to the salt flats. but that's a minor wish. Very nice image.
