Sarah Marino and Ron Coscorrosa - Desert Paradise

Although the name "Death Valley" suggests inhospitable desolation, this part of the Mojave Desert is a place of sublime beauty and diverse, dynamic landscapes. With salt flats, sand dunes, colorful badlands, rugged canyons, dramatic mountain peaks, and a wide variety of desert plants, Death Valley National Park has a lot to offer for nature photographers.

Death Valley is the largest national park in the contiguous United States. This can make planning a trip to the park feel overwhelming, especially for first-time visitors. With this ebook, we want to help you save time on planning and help you get to some of the park's best spots for photography, all while learning more about this unique desert landscape and how to photograph it.

Desert Paradise is an in-depth, time-saving guide that will help you get the most out of a photography trip to Death Valley National Park. The 263-page PDF ebook includes photo location information, advice on how to photograph desert landscapes, travel information, and many example photographs—all for $29.

DESERT PARADISE includes:

• Detailed information on 20 primary locations, ranging from classic Death Valley icons to further afield places.

Who will get the most from this ebook?
This ebook will be most helpful to photographers planning their first trip to the park, or photographers who have been to Death Valley before but want to explore beyond Zabriskie Point and Badwater Basin (both of those amazing locations are included in the ebook, too!). The stark, expansive landscapes of Death Valley can be both physically and visually overwhelming. This ebook will help you learn how to photograph these unfamiliar landscapes so you can make the most of your trip to the park. While there are a few accessible and roadside locations in Death Valley, visiting most photo spots will include some walking, often over uneven and rocky terrain.
