My Favorite Photo Location,

A number of years ago my wife and I went to the Great Sand Dunes in
Colorado. In the late afternoon and early evening the sand dunes take on a
special beauty with flowing shadows and highlights that are continuously
changing. The eye and mind is bathed in artistic shapes and forms.
The color and tonality of the light is warmed and the shadows are opened by the light reflecting off the sand surfaces. Blowing sand can create interesting halos around people, wipes the sand surfaces clean of tracks and
creates undulating waves.

When no wind blows, a myriad of foot tracks tell a story of the of people
trekking through this interesting area. You become aware of the size of
these dunes when you see people walking along the dune ridges or climbing the dune faces.

Here are a few images that shows the enjoyment that the Dunes have given to
me.
