Description
#3 of my trip photos. Deeper into the park the contrast between the rocky landscape and the soft grassy fields is more obvious. The weather was fabulous this day.
The peaks and eroded layers almost had me naming this upload "Points & Petticoats", but that doesn't sound very rugged!
Thanks to all who visited my previous upload.

Oh this is excellent Jodes, look at those geographical layers in the rocks, superb photo!
This is really gorgeous, great shot.
Well, now I may have to take the long 45 min drive out there and get me a photo response. ;) Beautifully captured, I love how the soft focus in the foreground really forces you to take in the unique formations the Badlands has to offer.
Really amazing terrain! The contrast is gorgeous and the colors seem so well blended.
great shot...
What a stunning rock formation, excellent capture
yeah, 'points & petticoats' might raise some eyebrows among the mountain-climbers on Rosity (and I don't imagine the Lakota & Dakota Sioux would be too thrilled either, lol) The contrasts between the rocks and sky are quite stark; yet I know they're wholly natural. (A lot of dig. photographers would coax them out of the shot with digital means. I know you well enough to know your eye does all the coaxing.) It really is stark: The hills are so sculpted, and they 'do' look like they're wearing petticoats or ballet attire, and the strata are very clear in this shot. It's actually monumental, but because it's nothing but the rocks, empty grass & sky, it almost feels 'intimate'. And that ultra clear sky is amazing: not a blemish, not a skin rash, nothing. I remember the hills being that color too: They really are a dusty grayish brown...Fine pic, you always put care into your shots. The detail & clarity are so natural and sharp...
Great show here. Excellent photo.
Great looking place.
Rugged terrain for sure but it makes a subject with almost any scale thinkable.
Stunning capture Jodie.
