Mesquite Dunes Footsteps


2 February 2013:

Taken on Sunday, January 27 at the Mesquite Sand Dunes in Death Valley: I was on my way out of the park headed for home, and I stopped one more time at the Mesquite Sand Dunes near Stovepipe Wells. I had wanted to run a few rolls through the Hasselblad sometime on this trip, and this was my chance. The sun was too high for the more classic sand dune shots, but the backside of the dunes still provided some nice low sun angle opportunities. Two days earlier we had been trying to get footprints out of our photographs, but this time I decided to feature them. I spent almost two hours wandering around in this fairly quite corner of the dunes. This image and several others came out quite nice. The Hasselblad still works! This is from roll 655, so a lot of film has gone through that camera.

Hasselblad 500 c/m, Ilford Delta 100 black and white film, red filter.
