Badwater Basin by SarahMarino

We ended up in the right place at the right time to see Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park flooded. What had been gnarly, rough, and brown salt polygons have been broken down by the rain and are reforming as more delicate white salt polygons. Here, a thin layer of water and the blue tones of twilight almost make the salt look like ice.

Now is a great time to visit Death Valley National Park, with cooler temperatures and the possibility of dynamic weather. If you have a trip planned to this area, our popular photography guide to Death Valley might interest you. Learn more through the link below…

Bonneville Salt Flats by dswindler

It was a stormy evening out at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. Because the salt was so wet, I didn’t dare drive my truck on the flats, so I used my mountain bike to get out a good distance out. I really didn’t have much hope for sunset due to the heavy clouds on the horizon. However, a small break appeared and the sun poked through for just a couple minutes. Good thing I was ready! And yes, it was totally worth getting self and bike totally covered in wet salt.

View from the salt flats of El Saladar (Calpe, Alicante, Spain), on February, just at the time when the sun just hide, the “blue hour”, called this way by the predominantly blue glimmer of the remaining light, which also makes a beautiful contrast with the warmth of artificial lighting. It was a big pleasure sharing that photographic evening with Alfredo Blanquer (Konqueror) enjoying the beautiful photographic opportunities this place offered.

“Calpe al anochecer”.
Vista desde las salinas del Saladar, en la alicantina localidad de Calpe, en febrero, justo a la hora en que el sol acaba de ocultarse, la llamada “hora azul”, por el predominante color azul que la tenue luz restante procura y que tan bello contraste hace con la calidez de la iluminación artificial.
