Impending Storm, Mono Lake - a photo on Flickriver

What was intended to an astrophotography focused camping trip with clear skies instead turned into variable and wet weather. Using the telephoto to isolate interesting bands of light and dark over Mono Lake, I processed as a high contrast, monochrome image to bring out the drama and dark mood of this scene.
