Sunday #StunDay from the #AlabamaHills!
This is Lone Pine Peak and #MtWhitney in the Eastern Sierra, through the #MobiusArch.
Definitely worth the early wakeup!
A view from Zabriskie Point in Death Valley at sunrise. Alluvial fans of striped rock stretch from one side of the image to the other. Manley Beacon, a pointy light colored rock structure is prominently featured near the center of the image. A mountain range and a sliver of salt flat are visible in the distance. Bands of pinks and purples fill the sky.
Yellow flowers on green stalks fill the lower left quarter of the image. Rocks and boulders are visible in the distance. The top third of the images are lenticular clouds masking out the early morning sun.
The snow capped Sierra Nevada mountains run in a line the upper third of the image. The lower part of the image shows jumbled orange and yellow boulders with some bushes interspersed between them.
Bright red flowers cluster roughly in a circle in the lower right quadrant of the image. The flowers are growing atop a yellow granite rock. Mount Whitney and snow capped Sierra Nevada mountains are visible in the distance.
A reminder that beauty does exist in the world and perhaps better things are possible. Wishing you all djam karet, the moment that stretches.

It's been six and a half years since I did this roadtrip that looped the state. Here was one of the last camping spots of that trip. Before the sun rise I made my way over to Mobius Arch to get that one shot I always wanted with the arch rock framing Mt. Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous 48 states. Many make the mistake of thinking Lone Pine Peak to the left here is Mt. Whitney but they are sadly mistaken because from the Alabama Hills it looks higher, it's definitely not and the laws of perspective/distance tricks the uninformed because Lone Pine peak is closer and in the foreground compared to the actual Mt. Whiney which stands a good four miles further back as displayed here in my photo with it's serrated edge leading up to the summit. I've summited several mountains but summiting Mount Whitney is still high on my bucket list, but in order for me to do it at my age I would have to start training now for a summer 2027 attempt hoping I get on the lottery for the hard to get wilderness trail permit. Regardless it is always a beautiful place to photograph and explore the nature below it.

For this week's #RockinTuesday, we are off to the #AlabamaHills in the Eastern #Sierra. This has gotta be one of the purdiest rocks around - that mug is beaten to the Gods, baby!

A winter storm let up enough for me to go out and take some shots of the fresh snow in the Sierra Nevada.

The Alabama Hills National Monument is a spectacular place to wake up after a winter storm. This is the February image in my 2026 calendar, "The Public's Land." Link in the first comment. #photography #landscapephotography #alabamahills #calendar
My first metal print and it was free thanks to a professional photographer I had met. Alabama Hills in the Eastern Sierra’s. #photography #alabamahills #landscapephotography
A little cotton top cactus in Alabama Hills, just west of Lone Pine, California. Mount Whitney can be seen in the distance, glowing with the day's first light.

It's #RockinTuesday. Here's a shot from about 2 years ago. The image shows #MobiusArch, a natural rock formation located in the #AlabamaHills near #LonePine,California. The arch is a popular subject for #photographers because it frames #MountWhitney and the #SierraNevada mountains in the background
