Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Sunrise, Death Valley National Park Taken from a high ridgeline, this photo shows Star Dune being spotlighted by the morning sun. The mountains of the Amargosa Range in the background have only just started to pick up the sunlight, leaving the dunes surrounded by the shadows. These are one of five areas of dunes in the park.
Alpine Lakes Wilderness, Enchantment Lakes Basin, Washington The Enchantment Lakes are a jewel of the Cascades, and this waterfall falls from one lake into Snow Creek. I love the way the larch seems to be watching over the scene.
Yosemite Falls I was hoping for snow but found gorgeous mists swirling around the valley. A hint of the sunset crept through and lightly lit the cliff. With few people around, it was a quiet and peaceful scene.
