Macro image of a dried flower. Focus stacking was used to achieve adequate dof. I used focus shift shooting in the Z8 to obtain 20 images which were auto-blended in photoshop.

Looking far down from the Black Mountains, an abstract world of textures stretches out across the lands north of Badwater. The ephemeral return of Lake Manley reflects a blue sky above. Strange shapes of floating salt float in its surface, as if this was all a painting and some brush strokes broke free from the shore and drifted out into the water. The path of countless tiny channels of water as it wages battle to erode the mountains over millions of years is revealed in the patterns of the mud and the outline of an alluvial fan that gives way to the flat expanse that fills this whole valley. The high water mark is traced by a beach of brilliant white fresh salt crystals, with further traces of mineral deposits all throughout the muddy and salty land.
