Love the contrast of the very white sand against the dark sky. Love the clouds too. It's awesome that you did not lose the detail in the white - I'm sure I would have blown out that area lol.

Also very nice but the other one really grabs the eye and totally stands out.

Oh my word. Your images in this challenge just seem to be getting better and better. I love this shot. the dof is perfect and the contrast between the sand , the plant and the (beautiful) sky is outstanding

Without question my favourite of your entries to date.

Even in B&W you can feel warmth radiating from this shot

Just wonderful

Dramatic landscape tone, w/brush & sage expanding to double horizon to dark sky & whispy clouds.

These White Sands pictures are simply magnificent. Excellent tones - very rich blacks and lovely whites.

Catherine, this is an amazing shot. I love it. The sand is so white and soft looking it could be mistaken for snow. I love the tracks, the waves in the sand, the foliage, and the sky. Everything comes together and works perfectly.

Ohmy, Catherine! This is beautiful! When I lived in El Paso, I used to love to go to White Sands. It is unbelievable. I'll never forget just rolling miles of those white sand dunes. You have captured its beauty so well! This is so sharp and clean!

It really goes from light to dark as you get to the back of the shot! I love sand dunes.
