Otherworldly
This is a wide-angle view of the unique landscape found at Badlands National Park in South Dakota, USA.
I took a different approach to this image. Using a fisheye, wide-angle lens, I was able to squeeze a lot of geography into the frame. Normally to see this view, you would have a much wider image. (Compare my previous post of a similar landscape.) This particular lens also adds a curvature to the horizon.

Beware of Bruno – Prairie Guard Dog
Don’t miss the little guy on the mound. This prairie dog seemed to take an aggressive stance; preparing to defend his huge, fluffy friend in the background.
Of course, if you advanced on him, he would quickly dart into his hole. This is clearly not my greatest image but I share it because makes me smile. It was captured on our recent visit to Badlands National Park in South Dakota. This was actually taken at one of the entrances of the park where several Bison happened to be hanging out near the road – and, at least, one vicious prairie dog. It was late in the day.
You will see a lot more photos from the Badlands in the future.

Big Badlands Overlook
This was our first view of the amazing scenery at Badlands National Park in South Dakota. This observation point is known as the Big Badlands Overlook. This was our first visit to the Badlands and it was stunning, to say the least.
This is a very large image, created by stitching 6 individual photos together. It is so large that it is hard to take it all in. To get a sense of the grandeur, you need to view the largest version your screen will allow. Simply click on the photo and a large version will open in a new browser tab. Take your time and browse the image.

Dignity – of Earth and Sky
On our way to the Badlands we found Dignity. This is a 50-foot stainless steel sculpture to honor the cultures of the Lakota and Dakota people.
The full title of the sculpture is “Dignity: of Earth and Sky.” You can find Dignity on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River near Chamberlain, South Dakota at a rest area off of Interstate 90. You can read more of the interesting facts and story behind this beautiful work of art by reading an article i found on Wikipedia.

The Falls at Sioux Falls
These are the water falls you will find in the center of South Dakota’s largest city – Sioux Falls. They created a very nice park along the river that feeds the falls. It seems to be the hub of many activities.
I was able to grab this and a few other nice images of these falls while on a recent visit.
