Here's this week's photo for Your Sunday Best, hosted by A Rural Journal.
White Sands National Monument, Alamogordo, NM, February 2007 |
I've posted this photo before, but it's one of my favorite New Mexico scenes, and one I wanted to share again.
I took this photo at White Sands National Monument in southern New Mexico, when we still lived in Alamogordo. It was in February 2007, just a couple weeks before Livie's first birthday. She had fallen asleep in the car on our way to White Sands (it was about a 20-25 minute ride, so of course, she fell asleep). Andrew sat in the car with her while I got out and took a few photos, the above being one of them.
I miss the vibrant skies of New Mexico, where we had 300+ days of sunshine per year. At least I have photos to look at when I'm homesick for the Southwest.

Wow -- that sand is white! How pretty with the contrasting blue sky above. Awesome shot, Sonya! :)
That is a beautiful, vibrant blue sky. I can see why you like it so much.
Very pretty shot. At first I thought it was snow ;)
This is a beautiful shot I love the white of the sand with the blue of the sky. Incredible. B
I thought it was snow. Beautiful white sand. Thanks for sharing.

I have never seen sand so white! At first I thought it was snow:)
Beautiful!
The white against the blue is so beautiful. Great shot.
Beautiful photo; I like the blue & white with the curved horizon.
White Sands NM is a place I've always wanted to visit... hopefully one day! =) Beautiful capture!
