In the throes of a creative funk I took a trip to a place that has historically been my muse. After roaming the dunes at sunset & not feeling excited by the images I’d taken, I packed up my gear, preparing to return to the car to lick my wounds. Because I was out with a friend, I sat on a mound of sand waiting for him to finish up. Head buried in my phone ignoring my surroundings I heard “look at that light”. As I looked around I was greeted by the most beautiful soft light on the curves of the dunes.

This particular scene struck me as the beautiful curves were accentuated by the light creating a vision of a ghostly face in the sand. With such beauty in its simplicity, I felt like the photography gods were looking down on me, reminding me of why I love photography & the dunes so much.
