Milky Way Core rising above strange rock towers in California
Near Mono Lake in California stand unusual, cream-colored rock formations known as tufas. These towers formed when calcium-rich underwater springs mingled with the lake’s carbonate-rich waters, sparking a reaction that produced limestone. Gradually, the limestone accumulated into tall structures, and as the lake's water level receded, the towers were revealed. In my opinion, they create an ideal backdrop for views of the Milky Way stretching across the sky between them.
Acquisition details:
f/1.4, ISO 400, 2 min (tracked sky)
f/8, ISO 100, 30s (foreground)
