Death Valley National Park

This portfolio features my photographs taken in Death Valley National Park. Death Valley is the hottest, driest, and lowest national park. Perhaps the official NPS website describes Death Valley the most succintly as a land of extremes: “In this below-sea-level basin, steady drought and record summer heat make Death Valley a land of extremes. Yet, each extreme has a striking contrast. Towering peaks are frosted with winter snow. Rare rainstorms bring vast fields of wildflowers. Lush oases harbor tiny fish and refuge for wildlife and humans. Despite its morbid name, a great diversity of life thrives in Death Valley.”
