The well

Image Details:

"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

My favorite poet certainly didn't have such a luxurious fountain in mind, when he wrote those words in his famous novella "The Little Prince", but when I saw it during my visit to Death Valley National Park in May, I knew I had to return to shoot it with the rising Milky Way.
