SCOTT PAPEK PHOTOGRAPHY PROUDLY PRESENTS “Morning Glow”

As the sun first hits the mountain range in White Sands it adds a vibrant glow for a very short time. The glow effect disappears after a few short minutes.

Before sunrise, I was looking for a composition and was drawn into the patterns within the sand. I was not expecting the first light effect on the mountain range.

Sacred White Sands

Posted on by

In South Central New Mexico, just west of Alamogordo, are the world’s largest dune fields of Gypsum sand. The brilliant white sand dunes cover an area of nearly 230 square miles, with many of the dunes rising to over 60 feet.
Scott Papek proudly presents “Sacred White Sands”; a Limited Edition of only 300 prints will be sold.

Sacred White Sands New Mexico Papek Photography

The white sands have been on my photography list for more than 2 years. Coming from the Midwest, when we see white we think cold.
It was nice to be surrounded by white in a t-shirt for once.
A highlight for me was the last day when we entered the park 90 minutes before sunrise.
