Mesquite Flat Dunes

This vertical image is taken from a higher vantage point and shows no sky. The bottom four fifths captures the top of a wide, side lit, dune ridge that sensuously serpentines up toward distant dunes. Above the dunes in the upper fifth of the image one sees barren, desert mountains.
