As I pass through the landscape I don’t remember all the little details of what I have seen or experienced. I don’t remember the exact spot I was in when I took this photo, but I do recall watching as the mountains met the clouds. I don’t remember my exact thoughts, but I do recall the vastness of the landscape. For me, this image transcends that instant I pressed the shutter release, it reminds me of the experience I had the day I visited White Sands.
Silver Dunes, White Sands National Park
Walking up and down the Dunes of White Sands can be a meditative activity.

From Out of the Dunes
Since living here in New Mexico for the last couple of years, I have found the Yucca to be fascinating because of its human like form. This one seemed to be coming from out of the dunes as dawn broke at White Sands National Park one morning. It was barley visible when I first started to photograph that day, but as the light spread across the dunes and revealed its size, it seemed to get closer to me. I felt the need to introduce myself and take a portrait of him before I lost the beautiful soft light and the dark sky background.

Photographing From the Levee in Las Cruces, New Mexico
It was a chilly day of about 50 degrees with a breeze that made it feel colder. When you look behind me, you see the Organ Mountains to the east, and the city of Las Cruces to the west.
Finally at the end we take a look at what I captured on this day.
Thanks for watching.
