A Soaptree Yucca (Yucca elata) casts a long shadow across the pristine white gypsum sand dunes of White Sands National Monument. The Tularosa Basin where White Sands sits is nearly 250 million years old. Gypsum is a relatively common mineral, but not commonly found at the earth’s surface. Within the last 70 million years, tectonic forces brought the gypsum to the surface in the surrounding mountains. Rain dissolved the mineral and deposited it into a lakebed at the bottom of the closed basin. Winds have weathered the gypsum evaporite into fine grains and deposited them in a large dune field with crests over 50 high. The yucca plants which dot the dunes put down roots very deep to find water near the rocky soils beneath.
CONTEST WINNER: 3rd Place, "New Mexico, Land Of Enchantment" contest, October 2022.
Welcome to my galleries of Fine Art and Creative Photography. Here you will find a wide variety of Fine Art images from the American West, the desert Southwest and around the World. You will also find my revolutionary Creative Photography galleries, offering surreal and fantastic images of a variety of subjects where I have used the light and energy passing through the lens, painting color onto the imaging surface. All of my Creative Photography images are created solely with the camera and are not created by manipulation with a computer program. I am a staunch supporter of the local economy concept and in keeping with that ideal, I offer significant discounts to the framing trade, along with interior designers, institutions, art...
