I was traveling to Death Valley after a conference in Las Vegas in July. The temperature was hitting 130F that day when I was in Death Valley. The air was thick and hot it made every breathing difficult when I was out of the car. I was finishing the day and was rushing to Dante's View for sunset, but I knew I was running out of time. When I drove by Zabriskie's Point, I knew that it was going to be my final shots of the day. This picture was my last picture of Death Valley, but it was also my favorite one.
