Blue Point Bay II
Location Origin Story
These are the shores of Blue Point Bay. The abundance of minerals that permeate the shores of the aptly named Blue Point Bay comes from a series of hot springs west of the bay. Rogers Spring and smaller Blue Point Spring are continuously fed by hot water springs and are true desert oases with shallow ponds, fringed by desert trees, palms, and marshy vegetation.
The hot springs water rises to the surface at about 100 degrees, then cools to about 90 degrees in the ponds. Overflow from the springs creates little creeks that meander toward the shore of Lake Mead, depositing the various minerals all along the shoreline.

About This Photograph
This bright and colorful scene was photographed in the early morning following a very strong rainstorm during the month of February while Zedekiah was flying and exploring the Lake Mead National Recreational Area below the Muddy Mountains.
Image Rarity
The image was taken from a moving aircraft, as Zedekiah piloted the aircraft while simultaneously operating the camera.
Following the storm to be able to film this image while the ground was still wet was difficult to time correctly.
Timing and being in the place-in-space for this scene to reveal itself was crucial to this image composition.
Lastly, it is impossible to simply walk up a trail and take the same photograph again. This image was very difficult to create, and is truly one-of-a-kind, therefore making it extremely rare.
