Description
Zabriskie Point was a revelation. Here at Death Valley National Park, geology is exposed in all of its glorious confusion, beauty and mystery. Originally I was reluctant to make any photographs here, for Ansel Adams had made the arguably ultimate iconic images here. Until I arrived to find what an amazing sight the location is, and I resolved to interpret the scene in my own way.
Manley Beacon is a landmark of the Armagosa Mountains clearly visible from Zabriskie Point, overlooking the salt flats of Devil's Golf Course with the Panamint Mountains soaring in the distance. And the light here at sunrise is simply magical.
So much that I found myself looking down and south, photographing the erosional badlands; immediately turning, looking up to the west and photographing Manley Beacon, and back again. Rapidly and repeatedly. Simply attempting to capture this magical light as it warmed the landscape for this brief moment in time. To interpret it in my own way, and to capture what I saw through the viewfinder and what I felt as I composed the photograph. It was a valuable lesson with sublime beauty.
