White Sands National Monument

We went back to the White Sands National Monument to take the Sunset Stroll, a ranger-guided tour that didn't start until about an hour before sunset. Before the tour started, we got some more shots of the dunes.
A sand pedestal.
Picnic benches in a sea of white sand.
Shadows on the sand.
Sunset itself was somewhat ruined by the clouds. But I liked the way the sun looked behind the clouds here.
Mountains to the north at sunset.
The clouds finally cleared a little after the sun had gone down, making the mountains look like their on fire. [Edit: I had the pic on the right blown up to poster size and framed it as a Christmas present to my grandmother.]
