My very first visit to Death Valley National Park was a total surprise. Whatever my preconceived ideas of this park were, they were totally wrong. I was shocked by the variety of color in this place. This was not the drab, vast wasteland I thought it was. It is a beautiful and exotic world where even the color of the sand is breathtaking and the salt formations of the Badwater Basin area appear other-worldly.
The nearby Alabama Hills also hold fascinating rock formations and colorful evenings.
This is definitely an area that should be on every photographer’s must see locations list. I will certainly be returning (but not in the heat of summer since temps can top 120 degrees!!) To see more images from this spectacular area, click here.
Great images Mike
Thanks Vin!
