Travel plans in 2020 did not hold up very well, and one trip for my wife and me that was a casualty was New Mexico. We finally got around to making new plans for the spring of 2022, and a prime target of interest was White Sands National Park. We booked a rental house in nearby Alamogordo for a week of our overall five-week trip.
From our lodging, I went into the park over several successive days and found lots of great sand dunes to shoot. I had read some photography guidance that the park is better in the afternoon to evening, but I found the mornings to be good and not as hot. Every day I visited, I went out in a different location or direction to see what variety of subjects and compositions I could find. This was one of my favorites.
