The last time I visited Great Sand Dunes National Park was in October of 2023 on my way to a Workshop in Western Colorado with Josh Snow. I didn't expect it to be much, nor did I expect it to be a place I'd find a lot of content, but I wanted to visit it for longer than an afternoon.
I went back to Great Sand Dunes in June of 2025, and I can say, without hesitation, this park is worth the trek! There's a lot to shoot in and around the park, and it made for an incredible 3 days of shooting.
As I have done in the past, I will share the journey with you at this event. You will see:
► My Google Earth locations for the places I photographed.
► My successes and failures with various locations.
► My favorite pieces from the trip.
► Secrets to make your trip to GSD NP a success!
Join me on July 24th at 2 PM CDT.
This event will be free to attend live, and the replay will have limited availability for non-f.64 Elite Members.
