I really love the textures and contrasts in this shot. I took it during the final morning of my 2008 Death Valley National Park photo trip with my friends Jason Heiman and Mike Irwin.

We spent 5 nights and 4 morning trying to find the "perfect" light to shoot these beautiful sand dunes with. We weren't blessed with this phenomenal light until the final morning. We got up at about 4:30AM to be out there and subsequently made the 3 hour drive back to Las Vegas to catch our flight home.

Overall, it was another fantastic and successful trip.
