Weather seems to change quickly out here - this storm convinced us a longer hike out onto the dunes at this time of day was not advisable :) The dramatic clouds made for a nice capture.
The sun pops out and catches the dunes for one last moment.
My telephoto shot exaggerates how close the dunes are to the mountains behind them. The touch of fall color on the side of the mountains was a hint of the fabulous colors we were going to get to see on the drive home!
