The rising sun reveals ripples and texture at various scales in the Mesquite Dunes, Death Valley National Park, California.
A friend and I woke at 3:30 in the morning to observe the Milky Way and the darkness of the heavens in this relatively remote spot. It was fascinating watching the detail of the universe give way to the detail of our beautiful planet. Navigating the dunes in the nascent morning light, it was also interesting to observe the quantity of fresh Sidewinder marks in the sand. Thankfully, the Sidewinders appear more than capable of avoiding blundering hominids in the dark.
