- Elevation -282'
Sunset over Badwater Basin from Dante's View, Death Valley
From my trip to Death Valley last November, looking northwest-ish, about 5700' above the valley below. Good times. I bracketed a few comps out there and never got around to blending, so I'm checking to see how they came out. I had my Cokin filters with me, but by then had discovered that they are pretty much garbage. I think my camera captured most of the dynamic range in one shot, but auto blending reduces noise and saves me a ton of time in post.
Blended exposures (-2/0/+2) / 18mm (27mm=) / f/16 / ISO 200

Great perspective. At first I thought this was a seascape. Very cool shot.

Excellent blend, Andrew. This is a pretty cool shot. Death Valley is just an amazing place. I haven't been there in years, but it is on my list for another visit!
