Sandstorm at Badwater - explore.10
A very unusual sandstorm at the Badwater Salt Flats in Death Valley National Park. The storm was so heavy, that it was nearly impossible to stand or walk. Initially I intended to stay some hours on the Salt Flats for a new startrail project, but I finished my shooting after a few shots.
Theses are the days, when you should avoid changing your lenses. I changed the lenses in my car, but there was so much dust in the air, that I had to send it to NIKON now for a sensor cleaning :-(.
