See this exact sunrise unfold and many other scenes with flooded and normal salt flats here: youtu.be/YzLI5exyv-A

For as long as I have known about this phenomenon, I have envisioned capturing a beautiful sunrise or sunset at one of these mysterious holes in Death Valley National Park. The holes that appear and disappear at the Devil’s Golf Course part of the park are just so fascinating to me as they crust over or seemingly appear randomly almost overnight. On this morning I had the whole area to myself as a spectacular sunrise unfolded.

This image is but one frame in a time lapse I captured as the Sun rose behind the Black Mountains. In fact I have been sporadically capturing time lapses in this park for many years and I have finally put together my first film from those efforts. Death Valley Volume 1: The Salt Flats is now on Youtube.
