Mesquite Dunes outside Stovepipe Springs are dunes that change with the wind.  Some of the dunes are over 100 feet tall.  Looking back I wish I had done more hiking and photography here.  This is a peaceful place even though there can be lots of people.  Early morning is best, these were taken in the afternoon.  Tomorrow I took early morning shots.

I took this with a 200-500 mm lens at about  200 mm so you will get a feeling for the size of  the dunes

Took some of the warmth away from the original, it added more color.

Photo cropped and taken with a 500 mm lens.  It is hard to hike with a 5 pound lens.
