Skinny dipping in the Black Rock Desert Hot Spring

We spent last weekend at Balls, a big experimental rocket launch event in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada - the same place where Burning Man takes place. We were quite busy in daytime preparing and launching rockets. It's time for leisure after 6pm. After sunset we drove with a four wheel drive to the Black Rock Hot Spring at the edge of the playa. The temperature was hot, perfectly hot to soak and relax.

I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure, and carefully adjusted color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
