Description
This image goes along with the Monsoon theme from the last post.
The wind sculpted dune here got another brush added to it by Mother Nature. The rain from the night before has added the gently roughed up texture in the sand. The "full view" shows tracks from the local residents amongst the texturing. From skink tracks to what could be a slithering reptile along the right and bottom borders.
This may seem like a bland shot to some, but the nature lover in me liked the purple bloom atop the dune and the Yucca skeleton protruding through the sand. As well the colors from cloudy horizon, green Junipers and red sands. To the never ending amazement of how sand can support so much life!!!
To the kind souls that leave their mark whether a comment, rating, or save the image as a fav, you are very much appreciated, thank you!!!
Thank you all that viewed my last image below.

I'm with you I love the color palette. That gorgeous orange sand, the blue sky and the green of the bushes is absolutely stunning.

Spent two years in the Mojave Desert many years ago. I agree with all you've said. There is a real beauty to the desert and you've captured some unique features...particularly the rain drop pattern and the other tracks magnified by the way the sand surface is hardened temporarily after rain.

A super capture of all the beauty of the desert. Amazing texture in the sand and great little tracks to show that there is plenty of life about.

Beautiful photo.

Quite a wonderful capture, it is so tempting to run barefooted on the sand, I guess it depends on what time of day. :-)

I remember...at the end of the day,after a very long hike, we had to walk in the sand to go back to our 4WD...and it was horrible !
