This was taken in 2005 at the dunes, in Death Valley California.
While my Photobuds immersed themselves in documenting the beauty of Nature's Splendor, to retain my sanity and keep from pushing sharp sticks into my eyes, I spent the six days taking pictures of them taking pictures.
This is my bud Andrew, the Skiing Dentist, and a mean sports photographer, who spends a lot of time shooting his Daughter's World Cup Slalom ski races.

Re: Andrew at the Dunes, Death Valley California
Nice shot! Though, I wish the top of the dune did not transect Andrew's head...
