I'am in the high desert also for now and spent much of my life here,"60yrs" and this is one of the better sand dune shots that I've seen.Very well done.

To each his own. I love the sky in the Sand. Not quite natural but adds beauty to the photo.

Totally agree with you, I lived out there for 18 yrs then came back to the midwest. The sky is much more pale here than in AZ. It is exactly as it looks in your pix.... like I said, the desert has its own beauty. If you think the day time sky is beautiful, try looking at the night sky away from the city. I have truly never seen more stars than in the desert.

Night is incredible... you can see the entire band of the Milky Way above you, and you can spot a couple of other spiral galaxies with cheap binoculars..

Does "stunning sand shot" get too alliterative ? Well, it suits, so shush up ! Yucca Stalks reminds me of White Sands . .

Taken Along the Apache Trail, Arizona, drove a few mile back in off the main road. Found this old mansion the next morning after rain and a dusting of snow overnight. We were Jabelina hunting.
