Description
I love White Sands National Park in New Mexico and it is quite something to see at sunset. It had been years since we last visited White Sands and I was so looking forward to photographing it again. Unfortunately half our trip across the US was overshadowed by the smoke from the fires in the Southwest in 2020.
Waiting for the sunset we decided to take a short hike up into the lower sand dunes to look at some of the flora that grows there.On our way out we walked through the meadow I guess you would call it and the wild grass which was taller than most everything else was glowing with the last rays of the setting sun. The wood rail fence was a nice added focal point. I don't think the smoke hurt this shot at all.......this time. I think it turned out really pretty and you can order it even it an oversized piece if you like.
