White Sands National Park

During a recent road trip, I spent a dusk session and a dawn session at the White Sands National Park in New Mexico.

What you see is not snow.  It is white gypsum sand.  Truly one of the world’s natural wonders.  White Sands National Park preserves a major portion of the world’s largest gypsum dunefield.

As I was wrapping up my first visit to this park one dusk, I hung around a little longer to observe the color changes in the sky.  I was rewarded with this pink sky to complement the white sands.
