The first time I went there for photography, I didn't overexpose for the white sand, so my shots all turned out gray. The dunes are great after a rain...the ripples are gone, but the texture is amazing. White Sands is truly a magical place, and your pics reflect that.

I only planned this photo trip a little bit less than a month in advance...which happened to fall near a new moon. My next visit will be a full moonlight landscape trip, exactly how you describe! Having a GPS handheld unit was extremely beneficial out on the dunes. -Mike Mike H, thanks a lot for the tip… actually after researching this more, this is exactly what I plan on doing on my next visit.

This is a cool application of the skills we acquire in chasing. In a strange way the desert looks more alive than the acres of dried-out vegetation here in north Texas. Looking forward to your next several entries. --Amos Great pics and descriptions, Mike. This is a cool application of the skills we acquire in chasing.

A good plan is to stay in "midnight shift mode" and go down on a full moon night. Get a backcountry camping permit... but never set up camp. Stay up all night shooting under the full moon, then sunrise! Inside tip – you can get a backcountry camping permit and sleep the night away on the dunes … that way you’re already inside at sunrise.
