Mono Lake
View allAll Photos Tagged mono,
After spending the last 6 days shooting nightscapes with Wayne Pinkston we managed to get to Mono Lake to shoot a few panoramas. We had to find a location far away from the south tufas because being a new moon and on a saturday night the main area was a zoo, kids running around with flashlights photographers stumbling around in every direction. It was kinda like drunk disneyland, Hehe.

A long exposition, with a big stopper filter, can produce something little different at the Mono Lake, in California.
Mon coeur est un territoire habité par mille petits feux follets qui s'ébattent et le parcourent en tous sens, afin qu'il ne s'éteigne jamais.

My heart is a territory inhabited by a thousand little will-o'-the-wisps which frolic about, which run through it in all directions, so that it never goes out.

Late evening view after the sun set at Lake Mono in California. Took this capture well after all the other photographers (saw about 5 here) left. The lighting was great and the moon there in the sky was a nice added bonus drawing my attention.
Many do not know that there is a crater there next to Mono Lake ... and on this magical night the lava started to flow from a new opening ...
... or maybe there was just some lights from another photographer that lit the scene. This photographer was walking over to coordinate some light painting he was doing and the impact it might have on our captures. He had a red light on his head and a small led flashlight as well that combined for the light there among the tufa.
Then again, I like the idea of the lava instead ;)

So many snowdrop photos....think they go very well together
with mono.
Mono Lake is a beautiful lake with these unusual rock formations called Tufa. Arrived South Tufa the day before in the afternoon to check the road for sunset and sunrise for next day. The only thing is that the road is partly unpaved, google might take you to the road that river flowing ahead, you had to turn back to 395 and took another one… When we finally arrived at the South Tufa in the afternoon, we were thrilled and surprised by the number and beauty of these incredible God made structures on the lake... There is an easy boardwalk trail down to the Lake. The views are magnificent and beautiful. This lake is often used as the face of 'wish you were here' postcard, and deservedly so.
Old, unique, and full of personality… The Tufas are otherworldly, but you need to search to find the best views. Here is the photo of blue hour before sunrise, probably before blue hour. Not so many people in the early morning. There was the windy warning that day around the region, not perfect reflection.
