Sand & Sky Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

These are the Great Sand Dunes in Colorado, the highest in North America. The dune on the right is the highest at about 750 feet. It's a very weird, eerie place when you hike into the middle of the 35-sq.-mi. dune field, like being surrounded by a frozen ocean of waves.

Hello Ted....:

An image surprises of the dunes of white sand ....
in a beginning I thought that it was a snow!

The truths that it is a slightly usual image
and that I like especially for the contrasts
of blue the sky and the target of the sand.

A greeting.

Hi, Ted!
A wonderful shot in the desert. I like the contrasts and effects. The blue mountains make a nice atmosphere, and the small sand dunes look like the moon. I thought of a painting when I saw the sand dunes. Well done.

Best regards from Bergen!
