This is a photo of a Yucca against the finally etched white sand of White Sands National Monument in New Mexico. I took this photo in the morning with a Nikon D 7100 with a Nikkor Zoom Lens (18-200 mm.), and a Hoya Circular Polarizer, with an ISO of 100, F/18, 1/40th second exposure, and a Focal length of 55 mm. I used a Gitzo Tripod and Arca-Swiss Head.
