“Salt Flats to Mountain Peaks” — Snow-covered Telescope and Rogers Peaks and the Panamint Mountains tower above Death Valley salt flats in morning shadows.
It still seems odd to find water flowing here, but out on the salt flats of Death Valley it does flow at all times of the year. It is extremely shallow and it moves very slowly — but the amount of moisture out there is still impressive. Hint: don’t walk on these flats — you aren’t going to enjoy the thick mud on your shoes, the sensation of sinking into it, or the tracks you leave behind…continues: https://gdanmitchell.com/2025/04/10/salt-flats-to-mountain-peaks/
Winter Beauty Yosemite National Park Tunnel View
snowstorm swept through the valley, dressing the granite giants in a delicate veil of white. From Tunnel View, the world opened like a dream—El Capitan standing watchful to the left, Bridalveil Fall flowing like silver lace to the right, and Half Dome rising distant and proud, crowned in snow.

I am simply unable to resist the lone tree.
To me, it is a symbol of strength, independence, and stubbornness, representing a determination to grow and flourish despite so many factors being against it.

#PhotoOfTheDay is a favorite of me and the fam, not taken by me but by a nice lady using my dSLR at Yosemite Valley. My favorite place on Earth! A copy of this photo is framed in our entryway.

I loved this scenic view in Capitol Reef National Park because of all the layers of flora and rock formations from a foreground of shrubs and grasses to distant background red rock cliffs. The scene shows the rugged beauty of the desert environment.

Rugged cliffs in Capitol Reef National Park rise dramatically to contrast with the sky’s delicate wispy clouds. Early morning light highlights the multiple layers of sedimentary rock that record 200 million years of geologic history. Processed in black and white.

“Badlands, In Shadow” — Badlands formations in early morning shadows, Death Valley.
This is another is a series of photographs I made one morning at Zabriskie Point during my late February visit to Death Valley National Park. Previously I mentioned that I rarely photograph at this spot any more — after a couple of decades it takes some pretty special conditions to persuade me to join the crowd there. I stopped when pre-dawn clouds suggested the potential for a very colorful sunrise. Alas, that did not happen, but I did get some interesting light before the direct sunlight came to the formations at Zabriskie…continues: https://gdanmitchell.com/2025/03/26/badlands-in-shadow/

South Dakota Badlands Beautiful Afternoon
Four guys from the Twin Cities, went to the SD badlands for an adventure.
The purpose of this trip was:
1. To get away from normal life and to get refreshed a little bit.
2. To hike.
3. To learn some new photography techniques.
4. And to capture a certain picture that I had in my minds eye.

This is a view of Rio Paine downstream of Paine falls in Torres del Paine National Park in the Patagonian area of Chile. Here the river runs through a narrow gorge creating bubbling rapids as it runs toward one of the lakes in the area.
