PALO VERDE VAPOR - Tonopah, Arizona

I effort to celebrate January 1st each year with an early morning photo outing. The first morning of 2020 found me out near Tonopah where steam was emanating from the Palo Verde Nuclear Generation Station. I pre-visioned the final print showing the vapor contrasting against the early morning sky as the rising sun illuminated the structures. I made a nice silver gelatin print shortly after, but had not gotten around to scanning the print until now.
