After the Rain

Photograph by Guy Nesher , National Geographic Your Shot

It rained during the second evening of our jeep tour of the Bolivian salt desert, writes Your Shot member Guy Nesher . The next day we discovered that the ground had turned into an almost perfect mirror due to a thin layer of water that accumulated on it overnight. It was breathtaking. Initially I tried to shoot the empty desert, but the lack of any distinct features made the photos quite boring. I soon realized that my best bet was the other jeeps traveling beside us.
