Outstanding color and lighting, Ken. Beautifully captured. We were there in June when we went to YNP. But it was the middle of the day, so my pics are just OK. Had no time to stay till evening. We wanted to see Bodie too that day. Mono Lake is beautiful and very unique. Superb capture of it! #1304100
