New images from White Sands National Monument

Sunset at White Sands National MonumentWhat a beautiful evening at White Sands National Monument in southern New Mexico. It has been over eight years since my last visit to this wonderful place and back then I had not really discovered photography yet. I hiked into the dune field a couple hours before sunset, found “my spot” and waited for the light. I had expected a brilliant sunset, but that never came to fruition. Instead I was rewarded with the soft light that created the pastels that you see in the photo above. >>>Click here to see some of my other images from White Sands National Monument<<<.
