Tufa Glow Reflection
Tufas glow vibrant yellow at sunrise on Mono Lake, California.
The Mono Lake tufas form because of an underwater chemical reaction of calcium rich fresh water springs bubbling up in the carbonate loaded lake leaving a calcium carbonate salt deposit called tufa. In time these springs form the vertical towers we see today.
