Mesquite Dunes, Death Valley

[Michael Liskay]

I will be posting some of my favorite Mesquite Dunes images in color on the Landscape Forum but sort of like this shot in monochrome.

Nice - this point of view makes it look like the dunes go on forever. And without footprints.

Yeah no footprints and as you can see none will be forming any time soon with the wind that was blowing!

Very nice, the wind adds great atmosphere. Hope you had a filter on your lens!

Wow, truly beautiful Mike! I am running about town so only looking at it on my iPhone at the moment, but you have me wanting to get back home so I can see this on my monitor.

You had some great conditions. I am not a big fan of shooting in the wind if it’s too dusty, but the result for you is really sweet. I was fortunate when I was there a few weeks ago to have a lull in the wind for a couple of hours where I could run out there and get some cool shots of the dunes without footprints.
