Welcome to Great Sand Dunes National Park!
Welcome to Great Sand Dunes National Park!

A slightly zoomed in, telephoto type view, looking to the north across some desert grassland with one lone tree before coming up to the namesake sand dunes of the national park and Sangre de Cristo Range. Composing the image was a matter of finding that balance across the smoother grassland area with that of the ridges across the sand dunes and then mountain peaks. Metering involved finding that right shutter speed, given the bright afternoon sunlight that day.
