Mono Lake, CA
The Mono Lake tufas are picturesque limestone towers with knobby spires that look gorgeous against the waters of the lake. The tufas are actually formed under water but as the ancient lake has dried up they are now visible.
This has to be one of my very first attempts at Milky Way photography back in 2013 as my all time favorite mentor, Marc Adamus was teaching us the wonders of looking through an ultra wide angle lens such as the Nikon 14-24mm. The camera/lens is really close to the ground in front of a fairly small pool of water. However, at 14mm, it was possible to get these beautiful reflections in the water and create a bigger scene than one really existed.
