Today’s photos is from Cottonball Basin, Death Valley, California. It’s a shot I took around sunset while visiting the valley recently.
It was time to turn my camera to the west, and there I saw the shadow of Mount Kinabalu cast upon the early morning haze.
Here’s the third in my series of four sunset images from Laban Rata, Mount Kinabalu, taken during my trek up the mountain in August 1989.
Our suite on the 15th floor had great views to the west but there were some downsides to the hotel. It’s just across the freeway from Miami International Airport so depending on the direction of the traffic you can be kept awake by aircraft noise.
