I haven't been to many beaches, but this one might be the best. Free, no hassle parking; excellent quality sand; no litter; not too much seaweed; plenty of room for lots of people… combined with today's weather […]

Ripples spreading out from a central depression on a powdery dune at White Sands. Just to the right we see grama grass on a flat beyond the dune field. The horizon shows a washed out sky with distant low hills and anemic-looking fair weather clouds. Canon 5DII, 33mm, f/14

#FromTheVault: #SandDune with #SeaGrass

This was captured in #PointReyes National Seashore, California.

I had just purchased my #NikonD700 (2009). And I was moving from LA to Santa Fe, New Mexico. I drove up the coast saying my goodbyes to California.

Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes was a beautiful place but the amount of people there got me a bit flustered. If I had a few more days I would have explored in the morning.

When most people cleared out I photographed a lone photographer atop the highest dunes for scale.

From my first series of sand dune paintings. I loved creating these - they never go too much love though! 💖

Coastal #SandDune #ecology is important for #FloodProtection, #DrinkingWater and it’s unique #biodiversity. This Netherlands vs US comparison studied how humans squeeze these #coastal #ecosystems leading to detrimental impacts 🌍
