The delicate white tufa towers formed where freshwater springs percolate up from the bottom of the lake.

柔和、白色的鈣華塔形成于淡水泉從湖底滲透出來(lái)的地方。

Serene Scene 平靜的場(chǎng)景

This photo of the towers was taken during wintertime. The more recent calcareous, or calcium carbonate, deposits that make up the tufa formations are closer to the bottom and lighter in color.

這些鈣華塔的照片是在冬季拍攝的。鈣質(zhì)或碳酸鈣越近現(xiàn)代，所構(gòu)成凝灰?guī)r地層的沉積物越靠近底部，顏色也比較淺。

Sunset on the Towers 鈣華塔上面的日落

A sunset casts a warm glow over the tufa formations as seagulls forage for dinner.

當(dāng)海鷗在尋找晚餐時(shí)，夕陽(yáng)在凝灰?guī)r地層上面投射了溫暖的光輝。

Alabaster and Azure 光潔雪白和天藍(lán)色

The tuPennalafa towers are seen in this reflection in Mono Lake's calm waters. However, the water's serene surface is sometimes disturbed by circular wave patterns that are caused by bubbles from freshwater springs rising to the top.

在莫諾湖平靜的水面上反射出圖噴那拉發(fā)塔（tuPennalafa towers） 。然而，湖水的寧?kù)o表面有時(shí)被圓狀的波動(dòng)圖形所干擾，它是由氣泡從淡水泉往上升到頂部所引起。

A Soft Sunset 柔和的日落

This stunning shot shows the towers' reflections against the salmon pink sky, with the periwinkle haze of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the background.

這張極好的照片顯示了反襯在橙紅色天空里的鈣華塔，背景是內(nèi)華達(dá)山脈里玫瑰色的薄霧。
