Mono Lake
This was my third attempt at Mono Lake. On my previous two trips I had a really difficult time finding interesting compositions and basically got nothing of interest.

For some reason this time things came together much better. Both the evening and morning shoots resulted in some attractive images.

I haven't seen this composition and while it is a little busy I feel like it has some potential and would appreciate your thoughts.

A few other images from mono can be seen on my blog:

Ed,

I really like the soft light and colors. You've done a nice job of isolating this great group of tufas and I like the balance between the darker ground and the great sky. I've been to S.Tufa many, many times and quit going there for some of the reasons you mentioned.

Nice take from this often photographed area. Mono Lake is a unique and special place.

Awesome. That stuff in the foreground looks like a dead sea monster.
