White Sands in the Tularosa Basi
White Sands National Monument, New Mexico, USA.
The glistening dunes of White Sands in the Tularosa Basin are not sand, but fine gypsum, deposited on an ancient seabed 250 million years ago. Gypsum, a form of calcium sulfate, is water soluble and washes away. But geological forces here created a basin with no outlet.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a world of wonder as you gaze upon this mesmerizing print capturing the ethereal beauty of White Sands National Monument in New Mexico! TD-1861 takes us on an extraordinary journey back in time, revealing the secrets hidden within these glistening dunes. Who would have thought that what appears to be soft sand is actually fine gypsum, remnants of an ancient seabed dating back 250 million years? Nature's artistic touch is evident in every curve and pattern etched across this breathtaking landscape. The forces of geology worked their magic here, creating a basin with no outlet, allowing the gypsum to remain undisturbed for centuries. It's like walking on water-soluble clouds! As you lose yourself in the intricate details captured by Thomas Dressler's lens, imagine how this unique environment has evolved over millions of years. These dunes are not just mere grains; they hold stories from Earth's past. So go ahead and bring home a piece of geological marvel that will leave your guests awestruck! Hang TD-1861 proudly on your wall and let it transport you to a place where nature defies expectations. Just remember - no commercial use allowed because we wouldn't want these magical sands disappearing before our eyes!
