The sand Dunes along the shore of Lake Michigan. The young family stands out even in the great expanse of the dunes.
Looking north along the vast stretch of dunes on a walk from Ainsdale to Formby.
Stretching for around 20km between Liverpool and Southport, the Sefton Coast sand dune system is the largest in England. The environment here supports lots of different dune-specialised species, so it’s recognised as one of the most important dune habitats in North-west Europe and is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. Our work on the Sefton Coast covers over 4,500 hectares of sand dunes, beach and tidal mud flats, and some areas of heath and woodland. The very long and wide beach here is a beautiful place to enjoy the coast and take a long walk by the sea, making it popular with visitors from far and wide year-round.
Fox aware some one was taking a photograph.It looks like the same one that wanders down to the beach.
Thanks all for looking and adding to your favorites.
Continuing my journey into black and white at the Dunes. They seem to go on and on forever when you’re out there. This is just a small snippet of the vastness. Pismo Beach, CA.

Wind-sculpted textures of the Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes in Death Valley National Park, where shifting sands echo the movement of water across a vast desert landscape. Side-lit by low-angle sunlight, the intricate ripple patterns and flowing contours reveal the constant, unseen forces that shape this environment over time. The interplay of light and shadow transforms the dunes into an abstract study of motion, rhythm, and impermanence. In this fleeting moment, the desert’s surface becomes a quiet record of nature’s invisible currents at work.
Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes in Leelanau County, Michigan. The road trip was in search of fall colors but the season was running late so we made alterations to our plan and looked for other interesting subjects to photograph.

Many thanks to you ALL for the views, faves and comments you make on my shots it is very appreciated.
This was one of the coolest moments in my photographic life. Standing in winds of 30 mph on a sand dune. You could actually see the peak change before your eyes. What to me was more amazing was the lack of visibility of the mountains and the light of the sun being blocked. You basically couldn't see the mountains and as can be seen by this shot, the sand engulfs the sun and it's surrounding light.
That is why after a month long venture through Utah, Arizona and Eastern California that I chose this as the first shot that I would work on. Even though I saw several things for the first time, this experience was the one that gave me the thrill that gets the juices flowing.
And to make this day even better was the shot that I got 5 minutes later involving Joshua trees.
Colourful red flowers - I assume poppies but I am happy to be corrected - amongst the sand dunes - Bamburgh, Northumberland, England. Quite an unusual sight I think. There was a sign about the "flora" there which mentioned some non native species - I am not sure if these are what it was referring to.

When I think of sand dunes and photography, I think black and white. The natural white environment coupled with shadow areas is just made for B/W interpretation. Here are my attempts to capture the beauty of White Sands National Park in this medium. Most are shot in hard light, but some are early or late in the day, some even approach high key. White Sands looks great in any wardrobe.
In late October, I made a trip to New Mexico to shoot the dunes at White Sands National Park. I hooked up with my close friend and photographer, Sandra Herber. www.flickr.com/photos/sandraherber/ We were at White Sands four days, made eight excursions into the dunes, hiked over 20 miles and shot close to 2,000 photos between us.
We are posting our images at the same time and it will be interesting to see how we handled being in the same locations together. For safety reasons and for the fun of it, we hiked the dunes together, sometimes pointing our lenses in the same direction, other times wandering apart. I am sure we got some similar shots, but it will be interesting to see those that are different as we each have our own way of looking at things, as well as having different focal length coverage. Then there is the processing aspect.
To say White Sands is magical is an understatement. As photographers, we talk about the light, emphasize the light, are critical about the light. The dunes at White Sands react in amazing ways to the change in light, offering different looks, revealing various personalities. It is this diversity of the dunes that I wanted to capture then, and present here now.
Death Valley has several sand dune areas. The most popular, and the one shown here, is the Stovepipe Wells Dunes. I rather like the contrast in color here at sunrise and what may have been dunes, at one time, in the background.

I shot this collection of photographs at White Sands during twilight, some in the early morning hours, but most in the evening. When the sun is below the horizon, the dunes and sky take on a magical presence. The dunes reflect the sky which can range from warm to cool, and there is a magical fifteen minutes when the sky away from the compass point of sunrise or sunset develops a glow of reds and oranges.
