Photography At White Sands

If you have not yet visited White Sands National Park in New Mexico, you may initially assume there is nothing but white gypsum sand dunes to photograph. It might come as a bit of a surprise to see so much greenery growing atop the sand when you first enter the park. Oh, you will see those sparkling, bright white dunes a few miles past the fee booth. And then what? Well, that depends entirely upon your photographic powers of observation. Noticing what is around you is how you improve upon your photography skills.
