This photo was taken in the afternoon of an overcast day. The original color version was very flat looking. In order to try to make it an acceptable photo lighting wise, I converted it to B&W. As a result, I think it looks very moody and more interesting. I liked the way the shoreline leads your eye back to the tufa formation in the back left of the photo.
Here 's a photo of Mono Lake from the top of Panum Crater, which is an ancient volcano crater on the south side of the lake. The setting sun provided a short but impressive light show.
I am finally getting around to processing some photos I took up in the Eastern Sierra's a couple of weeks ago. This one of course is of Mono Lake. I was hoping for some special light just before the sun came up over the horizon, but unfortunately the cloud cover to the east was too dense and that special lighting wasn't to be. This one was taken about 40 minutes later when the clouds started to breakup. Still a very nice place to be just to enjoy the beauty and solitude that is found in nature. In posts to follow I will be showing some more photos from Mono Lake and its surrounds, as well as, from Bodie ghost town.
