Death Valley 2013 - Day 3 - Charcoal Kilns, Mesquite Dunes
Our main destinations on day 3 of our trip to Death Valley started with a visit to the charcoal kilns at Wildrose Canyon (these 25-foot-high kilns were used to make charcoal back in the 1800s), followed by a trip to the Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes near Stove Pipe Wells for an end-of-day shoot with the late sunlight across the textured sand.
The night skies are fantastic in the desert, so I took several night shots under the moonlight that evening back at our campground.

Scattered people on the dunes. The last bit of sunlight has pretty much left the dunes, but is still catching the reddish foothills of the Grapevine Mountains of the Amargosa Range in the background. (3/19/2013, Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Death Valley NP)
