Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, California. Copyright © 2012 All rights reserved. Thoughts: I had a great time exploring the slots in Palm Wash (in the Calcite Canyon area) and as I emerged in the late afternoon, I noticed the clouds were lining up for a possible spectacular sunset. After scrambling out of the canyons, I climbed this unnamed mountain to the east of Travelers Peak and captured this scene.

The clouds were breaking up and I stood on the eastern shore of Lake Ediza, hoping the Sun would break through and light up the sky. This photograph represents the only peak of soft light that morning, which illuminated the Minarets nicely.
