Text on card: Sand Dunes, Sunrise, Death Valley National Park, c. 1948, Ansel Adams.

Death Valley National Park is in the state of California, U.S.A. It is the lowest point in North America and one of the hottest places in the world, containing a diverse desert environment of salt-flats, sand dunes, badlands, valleys, canyons, and mountains.

Ansel Adams (Feb. 20 1902 — Apr. 22, 1984) was a photographer and environmentalist best known for his black & white photographs capturing America's wild beauty.

"I hope that my work will encourage self expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us." ~ Ansel Adams
