Stormy sunrise, Badwater, Death Valley

A stormy sunrise in Badwater, taken during one of my Death Valley Workshops last January.

With the Leica S (007), Leica Super-Elmar-S 24mm and Formatt-Hitech FIrecrest Filters. Thank you for viewing, best regards

Very cool Vieri!

I like when the clouds get colored like that with the warm vs cool light. I have had that happen to me a few times in Yosemite and the Grand Canyon, it's just an amazing sight to behold.

A true masterpiece Vieri!

 

[Zeph]

Great comp, awesome conditions...

 

[AlanLichty]

Pretty dramatic clouds - the resulting image gets my attention more than the usual portrait of Badwater.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Beautiful and dramatic image.

 

[Jeffrey]

That is some action going on up there. Great capture of it.

 

[Kyle Jones]

Great light in the sky and detail in the ground. I'd love to see some of that color reflected in the salt. Striking image!

Thank you very much Jim! Yes, it is great when we get such conditions in the sky... especially in a place like DV, where they are in striking contrast with the ground

A true masterpiece Vieri!

Thank you very much indeed, most kind!

Thank you very much Zeph! Yes, the sky was really particular that morning!

Thank you very much Alan! When photographing something as portrayed as Badwater, it's great to have something to make our images different... the sky definitely helped here!

Beautiful and dramatic image.

Thank you very much Ben!

Thank you very much Kyle! I thought about adding a bit of reflection to the salt in post, but it sort of looked unnatural to me... perhaps I can try again and see if I can make it work...

Thanks again, best regards
