I really like it. The contract between the sky and sand, the texture of the sand and that little weed keeping my eye moving around in the pic. Good job.

I really like this shot. It's simple but has lots of impact.

Only criticism would be that the sky is a little dark. Was this purely down to the polariser?

Is that one shot, or did you stitch a couple together?

I love it!

I'm going to be down there next month. I completely rearranged my trip so I can spend a night in Alamogordo and get over to White Sands for an evening and a morning. I can't wait!

Hi George no pol. filter was used on this shot, just a tad of saturation. Kurt it's just one single shot. Becca you will love the place, it's awesome. Oh take the free range walk at sunset, these guy's are mines of info. Thanks again for all the comments.
