Late afternoon view of southern Death Valley from Aguereberry Point.

Aguereberry Point is a high overlook to the west of Death Valley, reached by a long drive from the Valley, the last part of which is on a decent gravel road. The view is, to state the obvious, tremendous. It includes the highest peaks of the southern Sierra Nevada range far in the west, essentially all of Death Valley National Park including a good portion of Death Valley itself and points beyond.

Black and white photograph of the early evening view of Death Valley from Aguereberry Point as the shadow of the Panamint Range begins to extend across the Valley.

Aguereberry Point provides an astonishing viewpoint over Death Valley and a 360 degree panorama that extends to the southern Sierra Nevada range.

Two fisherman fish from a rock outcropping above giant winter surf and shallow fog thrown up by the waves near Rocky Creek Bridge along the Big Sur coastline. A more distant perspective on a scene I uploaded earlier in a series of monochrome photographs.

This is a stitch of four 12MP frames, the result being a highly detailed image that should hold up as a 2′ x 4′ print. (It is probably getting a bit “old” to hear me reporting that the actual image contains far more detail that can possibly be shown in a web-sized image… so I won’t. :-)

This photograph was made along a familiar trail – actually a bit off the familiar trail – in a park I frequently visit in the southern portion of Santa Clara County.
