James, Great images. They reminded me of my only visit to Death Valley and I went back to look at my pics. When I found them I was shocked to see that it was way back in 1983. Every few years I say I've got to go back but then something always comes up. You have inspired me to plan a trip for next fall and/or spring (it's already too hot for this spring). Here are a couple scanned slides of the dunes late in the afternoon in March of 1983...

Hi George,
"When I found them I was shocked to see that it was way back in 1983. Every few years I say I've got to go back but then something always comes up. You have inspired me to plan a trip for next fall and/or spring (it's already too hot for this spring)."
Thanks for sharing - very well done. I particularly like the first photo of the dunes, but they are all nice.
LOL, it is amazing how time flies when you are not expecting it. I would not hesitate to make a 3rd trip to Death Valley - it is that amazing, and there is so much to photograph. I know that I have only begun to scratch the iceberg. As it was, I really wanted one more day out there.
As for going out there - unless you were doing it very soon, I would wait until fall or next Spring. The weather was too hot for me even now - though I generally prefer colder weather.
James

James and Chenthee, Excellent write up and photos in your latest featured article, "Spring in Death Valley". I particularly enjoy, James on the Dunes, Cactus Flower, and The Race Track at Twilight. Rich aka Pooga
