- In this video, I stray far away from the Everglades and land in New Mexico's famed national park, White Sands. Recently upgraded from monument to park, White Sands is a popular destination for photographers and rightly so. It is one of the most compelling landscapes to capture at best light (or light that is not the best!). Here, I provide you information on how to access the dunes, challenges when photographing in the dunes, recommended focal lengths and examples, and the various compositions that are there waiting for you to capture.
Wonderful video. Could you recommend where to park, which direction to walk and how far would I need to go to get footprintless images and some sort of foreground?
Fantastic video. Thank you.
Thank you!
A great video on the Sand Dunes Park. A beautiful looking area. Thanks so much for sharing your info about it.👍👍
No more photos from the canoe, recently found your channel while searching for info about kayak photography and I loved your videos but then, they were gone 🥺
Owen, thank you but what do you mean? Videos are still there & I will be back in the canoe! Or I must change the name of my channel 🤔
Oh, ok, I even thought that the name of the channel was changed 🤭, sorry I’ll be waiting patiently for more, I love your photos
As commented earlier, changing lenses on a mirrorless camera in the field is something I do not want to do, even less so in a potentially dusty environment, so a second camers with lens, or even a third (my sweetie is ok being my photographer’s assistant) might be my kit. I agree with Thomas about babying equipment. Thank you for your tips.
Thank you for sharing!
Great video Connie. I may go to Bosque right after Thanksgiving and will definitely plan to get to White Sands.
very helpful adivce. thanks
Glad it was helpful!
A nice overview. I baby my equipment & don’t know if I could bring my self to change a lens out in windy/sandy conditions. A 2 camera/lens set would be the thing for me.
I may not have experienced the worst conditions, but it was manageable. I wanted to travel light across those dunes, something to consider.
@@constancemierphotography understandable. Most do.
I've taken my camera out here multiple times, I'd recommend a large plastic bag to put your camera gear in, in case the wind really picks up and a dust storm starts (goggles or wide glasses wouldn't be a bad idea either!
@@desert-rat145 Both good ideas!
