This was one of the moments of the holiday which I had really looked forward to. We had not had the opportunity to stake out Zabriskie Point before we arrived for dawn but it was not too far away from our campsite, the parking was easy when we got there and the half dozen or so photographers arriving at the same time indicated where we were to go. Zabriskie Point is scrumptious, there is no other way of describing it. The folded chocolate and vanilla rocks curl up towards Manly Beacon and behind you is a range of pastel coloured hills. The distant mountains glow red and gradually the sun light catches the top of the beacon until it is totally illuminated. Now the display is over and the magic at least partially gone.
