For your enjoyment a photo of the simple beauty of the desert. While most focus on the iconic dunes of White Sands I’ve grown increasingly fascinated by the islands of life that exist in the meadows between the dunes. A closer look reveals the relationship of the plants to the land and wildlife.  My visit to White Sands inspired a couple articles that were recently published on the Digital Photography School si

As though time has stopped, waves of sand stand frozen in the heart of the vast dune field of White Sands National Monument. Photo Details: Canon 1Ds Mark III, 15mm fisheye, f/22, 1/200 sec, ISO 200 While light was softer in the morning to bring out the detail of these sand formations I’ve grown to love this view with the harsher late morning light. The larger view of the patterns in contrasty light reveal a hi
