After an exhausting walk out to the dunes to catch sunrise, the clouds blocked the direct sun. There was still some very subtle coloring coming form the sky that reflected on the dunes as the sun struggled to break through.
We reached the Father Crowley Point Overlook coming back into the park form the Alabama Hills just as the sun was setting. I took a series of bracketed shots to produce this HDR panorama of the view. The wind was very strong and shooting handheld it was hard to hold still while clicking the shutter!
