White Sands National Monument

White Sands is a 300 square mile area of gypsum rock dunes in New Mexico! It is surreal being there. When the sun is out you can see the expansive dunes with white all around and the mountains in the background. Sometimes you can't even tell when a dune begins or ends.

Actually no polarizer, my sigma 10-20 really just pops those blues! To be fair I tweaked the contrast a slight bit in Photoshop.
