13th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Climbing Sand Dunes

While atop one of the sand dune ridges in Rocky Mountain Sand Dune National Park near Mosca, Colorado, I noticed a man hiking through the trough of dunes and the magnificent backdrop of the Rocky Mountains. What a contrast - everything from the size of a man to the mountain, the colors, the elements.
