Mono Lake.

Been there, with memories of doing something like that, +Jeff Sullivan !
I still think half (or more) of the fun of night photography over there is the quiet of the moments enjoyed while the camera minds itself, +Jeff Sullivan .
I remember a night session with a couple students back around October 1988 where I first realized, first hand, the reality of a line from John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High" — "…the shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullaby…" My eyes were adjusted well enough walking around South Tufa that I was aware of my own very diffuse – and VERY soft – shadow under me! The only illumination was the overhead starlight. I remember starting to hum the song, after my quiet little epiphany!
Love the absolute calm of the shallow water, allowing for a "Perfect" mirror reflection of the open sky above!!
Magic place, I still believe. After some 37 years, I haven't lost my passion for THAT place, or the Spirit it conveys to whomever has the quiet of mind to listen. Who says a "muse" needs to have a heartbeat and be cute!
So true +Richard Beebe, I was at South Tufa last night, and the light, wind, seagulls and waves made the moment really special, until two different groups of people started yelling to each other across the small peninsula instead of simply walking 50 yards to express whatever it was that was so important to say. Fortunately the sunset crowd left, and I had some nice moments during blue hour before the night shift arrived to interrogate the tufa under their harsh, 200-lumen lights.
