with George Stocking
November 4 - 8, 2006
Cost: $1,695

Join photographer George Stocking for a tour of mystical New Mexico. The trip begins with two days of exploration in the magical landscape of White Sands National Monument, highlighted by photographing the full moon rising and later setting over the dunes. Wind and the elements make this sensuous landscape ever-changing, revealing and then enveloping scene after picturesque scene.

From the dunes you’ll move on to two lesser-visited areas of the state, first stopping at Tent Rocks National Monument where large tent-shaped rock formations are the attraction. Another day will be spent visiting the badlands of the Bisti Wilderness Area, where weather has sculpted a variety of unusual formations. Don’t miss out on this dune and hoodoo lovers dream!
