Could change any minute

Mono Lake on Christmas Day

 

I spotted this small, sheltered space with a view of the snow-covered mountains. Unlike the open part of the lake, the water was rather calm, so I was quite excited about the reflections. The reflections of the mountains were definitely not in store.

 

While the bands of thick clouds hovered over the mountains like Mono Dome and Lee Vining Peak, but, quite surprisingly, even Mt. Warren was clearly seen.

 

The mood that I found myself in was not necessarily something that I was looking forward to. And yet, it could change any minute. And I was hoping for it.

 

I saw a bit of muted pink seeping through the sky. Definitely part of Earth’s Shadow, but I wasn’t sure if it would come through or turn into something that made my attempt worthwhile.

 

So much for chasing light, I thought.

 

But then again, it could change any minute, I told myself.
