Tracking Through The Sands

Around the US West there are seemingly random pockets of sand dunes. This set is close to the Nevada/California border and are a favorite for the ATV crowd. Calle the Big Dunes, they are maybe 300' all and on BLM land.

An early evening walk at the Loonse and Drunense Duinen.

This place holds a special place in my heart, and I often find myself walking straight toward a familiar spot among the shifting sands. Today was one of those evenings. The sun was already low, nearing sunset, casting a warm golden light across the landscape.

Close to the ground, I noticed a small patch of grass catching that last light. Surrounded by sand, it stood there quietly, glowing. By lowering my perspective and opening up the aperture, I allowed the foreground and background to gently fade into softness, letting the light and the subject take center stage.

These inland sand dunes are shaped by wind, constantly moving and reshaping the terrain. It’s a dynamic landscape, even when it feels still.

More moments from this evening walk will follow.

Golden sands stretch out beneath a vast blue sky at Harlech Beach, framed by rolling dunes that offer a perfect #SandDunes and #CoastalViews experience.

The area is popular for #BeachWalk strolls, with the distant hills providing a dramatic backdrop for #NaturePhotography. Visitors often explore the expansive shoreline and the nearby dunes, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and wide-open coastal scenery.

Walking Into the Storm on the Dunes

A storm was rapidly approaching but the sun was still shining when I took this. Moments later the dark clouds in the background had blown over, leaving some of us drenched, and then it was bright and sunny again.
