Great Sand Dunes National Park, Part 2

I have spent the last month revisiting all the photos I took last summer on our 7-week road trip across America. I took so many photos, and I even did a good job keeping up with them as I took them, but there are always some gems that slip through the cracks. How did I not notice the above image, from Great Sand Dunes National Park? It is my favorite, I think, from the whole trip. We just happened to be there on a day when storms were rolling through but not really dropping much rain.

I like this one, too. The shadows the clouds are making are so dramatic.

All these folks are boarding down the dunes with special sand boards you can rent a mile or so from the entrance of the park.

Here, my husband looks like he has been walking in circles.

And this one isn’t too shabby, either. I love how small the hikers in the distance are. It really helps give scale to the sand dunes.

I’ve added the first and last images to my shop if you need some pretty for your walls!
