Description
Dawn on the Mesquite Dunes. Headed west. Sunrise to my back. Size 11 footprints. Time for breakfast. Black and White Companion piece to "Walk this Way. No. this Way" in the Death Valley collection. Where's Igor when you need him?
Mesquite Flat Dunes
These dunes are the best known and easiest to visit in the national park. Located in central Death Valley near Stovepipe Wells, access is from Hwy. 190 or from the unpaved Sand Dunes Road. Although the highest dune rises only about 100 feet, the dunes actually cover a vast area. This dune field includes three types of dunes: crescent, linear, and star shaped. Polygon-cracked clay of an ancient lakebed forms the floor. Mesquite trees have created large hummocks that provide stable habitats for wildlife.
Apologies to the late, great Marty Feldman.

Brilliant shot. When I was there, there were numerous foot prints making it hard to do “near clean” shots, unlike you being able to incorporate this into the shot.
Joe Schofield replied:
Thank you Alinna. Much appreciated. It presents much better to me in black and white
