Located near the small town of Lee Vining, California, in the Eastern Sierra, Mono Lake is one of the oldest lakes in North America. It is one of the top tourist destinations in the state and has been a source of political battle as the tributaries flowing into Mono Lake have been diverted to Los Angeles. On September 28, 1994, California Supreme Court ordered that this diversion be limited to restore the Mono Lake's water level to maintain a healthy waterfowl habitat.
Any photo in my collection can be made as a stunning black & white print.

Please note: final print colors may look slightly different than on your screen due to monitor variations - but the print will always be more beautiful in person!
