Whispers of the sand, a photo from California, West

Photographer's Note

Hello all, soft colors of sunrise out on the sand dunes in Death Valley. Silence, stark beauty, and expansiveness of nature all characterize what the experience of being out in the desert is like.
Enjoy

Howdy Karen,

Excellent dunes view, with the sand textures and details up close in the foreground, receeding into the smooth hills, then topped with the dramatic colorful cloud sunrise.
By getting to the Dunes at sunrise you can photograph the patterns of Nature, minus human footprints, etc.

Thanks for sharing,
Cheers,
Ray

Beautiful desert landscape! I like those smooth looking dunes, I guess not too many ATVs explores this area if they are allowed unlike the dunes near Yuma where the dunes are full of tire tracks. Good use of the shadows to create depth and nice details. Well done, tfs.

Hi Karen

Another excellent photo from your desert series. The textures in the sand and low POV are superbly judged and beautifully realised. The pinkish clouds are the icing on the cake.

Thanks for sharing, have a great day
Lisa
