Hello, Quite a trip you've taken and quite educational for all of us. I've never had the pleasure all of you took on this trip, even good pictures of the desert wildlife and flowers. Interesting shot of the crater of the Ubehebe. I did look this one up, made Mt. St. Helen's seem small in comparison. Congratulations on your feature. Ron/Oregon Coast

Again, great photos! I love Death Valley. Have only been to see Eureka Dunes, but never climbed them as it was late (drove in from the valley). If you'd like to see some of my DV shots, visit http://community.webshots.com/user/eowyn Thanks again for the photos! Joan

You must've come screeching to a halt when seeing that view of the Sierras near Lone Pine at sunset. What a thrill! Thanks for sharing, and congrats on being a featured album. Joan (aka eowyn on Webshots)

Congratulations on your recent feature with this interesting album. I love Desert Scenery and enjoyed the tour (the easy way without having to actually climb those dunes)! Great shots of the Dunes, magnificent scenes and I love the colourful Five-spot Wildflower. Thankyou for sharing and best wishes.. Gladys, Western Australia.

Hi, Congratulations on your featured album. All the photos are excellent, but some are spectacular. I was particularly attracted by the first two shots and by the one with the sand being blown off the top of the dune. Congratulations again and greetings from Florida, Paul.

Got lost in your moving photos and was sorry when I reached the last one. I appreciated the story-telling arrangement and your descriptive captions. If only you could photograph the silence of Death Valley at night.... Sandy, Michigan/USA

I love this! Your dunes hike looks like a wonderful adventure and I'd love to do the same one day. Unfortunately, I missed Death Valley on my last trip to the US. But I know about the beauty of dunes and deserts from the North African desert in Tunesia and Morocco. Thanks for sharing this, congratulations for the great shots and best regards from Zurich, Switzerland

swissmike62 2005.05.21 at 08:59:21 PDT
It's so good to see folks getting out and enjoying the wild scenery of the desert. As much as I hate high temperatures, I've found a beauty in the desert that is indescribable to folk who have never experienced it. You've done a great job of photo-journaling with both your photos and your descriptions. Charlotte-TX/NM

Congratulations on having your Eureka Dunes album chosen as today's feature. Looks like you guys had a great trip. You got some really great photo's and I can almost feel the sand stinging my legs looking you guys standing with that 40MPH blow. Yikes! I love that you commented on each and every photo. I haven't seen horn toads since grammer school when the boys would let them loose in class to create havoc. Again, Congratulations. Lorrie/Wyoming
