Two views of Bad Water Basin in Death Valley, lines up at the mountain bases from the left to right of the frame. On the left is the basin with water in it at dusk. There are wispy grey clouds in the sky, which is graduated from a light blue to a pinkish grey at the horizon. There are mountains in shadow coming from the left of the frame to the center of the frame where they have diminished in height and are nearly flat there. The frame is broken at roughly a third from the top be the lake leading to a reflected image of the described scene. The lake is about two thirds of the frame and has more reflected clouds that are white and sky that is blue. On the right half of the frame is a dry version of the scene taken a couple hours after sunrise. The mountains go from a low to higher tops to the right edge of the frame. They are sunlit and a sandy golden color. The sky above is blue towards the top of the frame which graduates to a pale yellow and white at the mountains. The lower two thirds of the frame is a salt flat that is the more common condition of Badwater Basin. It is in shadow and looks like grey sand with raised ridges that make irregular shapes in the salt flat. The middle of the image is a wavy irregular line, the clouds in the reflected surface of the water look like they blend with the ridges of the salt flat and the colors in the sky look opposite between the two sides.
Happy #Stunday. I don't normally combine images like this. #BadWaterBasin seen wet and dry. Once I realized that I took the 2 pics in nearly the same spot I wanted to line them up. Being from 2 different cams and sensor formats it was a pain.
