Mono Lake Fine Art Photography — Tufa Towers at Sunrise

Mono Lake's calcium carbonate tufa towers — formed when freshwater springs meet the lake's alkaline water — create one of the most otherworldly landscape compositions in North America. Shot at pre-dawn when the Sierra Nevada alpenglow reflects across the lake's glassy surface, this collection captures the tufa formations in conditions that require precise timing and conditions that occur reliably only a few times each year.
