More Views of the Dunes and the Mountains

 I woke before dawn and so was in place to capture early morning lighting of the Sangre de Cristo mountains visible from my campsite.

Around 5PM I wrote out to the National Park with Yagi My TW200. It's about 20 mi or so to the visitor center. I mainly stayed in the area just before the fee gate for the following shots of the dunes as the shadows settled into them with the sun going down.
