I don't remember for sure, but I think 2011 was the last time I shot at White Sands. This was Saturday evening.

Really like your use of the shadows -- positive / negative. I've never been to White Sands - looks like an amazing place.

Beautiful take on White sands, Michael. I think if it were mine I would crop to just above the foreground bump. To me it interrupts the smooth transition of texture, shadow, and sky.

Michael, I enjoy the composition and the leading lines from the dunes. The gradient filter is too strong and was placed too low in the image for my taste. I agree with Gary that the bump could be cropped out - I'm not sure that it adds to the composition. I do like the larger shadows coming from the right though.
