I drove a long ways through the sand, to find dunes with no tracks in them. Then hiked up this bluff..And the reward was worth it...
Stokksnes and Vestrahorn have been photographed many times, but it's always fun to explore the terrain and find a perspective you haven't photographed before.

Stokksnes und das Vestrahorn wurden schon vielfach fotografiert, aber es macht immer wieder Spaß, das Gelände zu erkunden und eine Perspektive zu finden, die man zuvor noch nicht fotografiert hatte.
A sand dune covered in marram grass on Faraid Head, near Durness in the far northwest of Scotland. Not much of a composition but I like the texture.
A coastal transverse sand dune looks like a perpendicular wall viewed from the ground.
Sand dunes are mounds of loose sand that are formed as a result of wind movement.

I'll see if this shows up today....I posted it yesterday and then it said there was an error and disappeared from sight. This was taken in the afternoon as I climbed to the top of the dunes. I was looking for Dagmar who, as it turns out, found a baby gopher snake in the middle of the dunes and rescued it by putting it in her pocket and taking it to the foliage area. She saved it's life.

I love solo hiking in the dunes. It lets me get in touch with my inner introvert. It gives me time to get lost in remote parts of nature.
The Panamint sand dunes in Death Valley National Park, California, shot last weekend. I’ve been to Death Valley many times and I’ve taken hundreds of photos of the dunes near Stovepipe Wells, but this is the first time I’ve hiked out to this smaller field of dunes on the western side of the park.
I drove a long way that weekend, going from San Francisco down I-5 to Death Valley on Saturday, up highway 395 on Sunday to stop at Mono Lake for sunset, then back to San Francisco through Reno that night. 1,000+ miles in the car but worth it to be at those unique places.
Sorry my friends, I have been pretty busy lately. Hope to recover all missed things soon! :)
Have a great day!
Dune photography can be so interesting when the light gets lower and produces shadows across the dune contours. This was taken at the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore as the later-day sun lowered on nearby Lake Michigan.
Death Valley's most accessible sand dunes are just a few miles from Stovepipe Wells. Tucked into Mesquite Flat in the north end of the park, these dunes are nearly surrounded by mountains on all sides.
The primary source of the dune sands is probably the Cottonwood Mountains which lie to the north and northwest. The tiny grains of quartz and feldspar that form the sinuous sculptures that make up this dune field began as much larger pieces of solid rock.

One of the things that Formby Beach is (in)famous for is its shifting dunes. You can see here how they have almost swallowed these trees which were planted around a hundred years ago behind the dunes in attempt to stabilise them ...
