The landscape of White Sands National Park is unbelievably rich and dynamic—a location where reality bends to fantasy.

This was my first time photographing sand dunes and each time I pointed my lens I marveled in wonder. As the sun said its goodbyes, the light faded from harshness to a soft golden glow. The sand exhaled with color reflecting the vibrant hues of the fiery sky.

An intense happiness and peace washed over my soul in this moment. I knew immediately what I captured was euphoria personified.
