Early morning at Dante's View, a mile (and then some) above Death Valley.

Want to play along? Here are the rules. And here is this week's shadow shot from Harriet, plus a selection of last week's from others.

Dante's View is on the crest of a ridge; the sun is behind me in this shot, low-angled, so it picks up anything that sticks up above the shadow line (in this case, sagebrush).; June 28, 2009 at 4:45 PM
ahab said...: Speaking of Ansel Adams... That is stunningly good.; June 28, 2009 at 5:20 PM
