At the very end of a visit to Badlands National Park several years ago, I thought I had found a really good place for sunset photography. So during this visit I found that location again and walked around during the day, scouting possible locations to return to at sunset. I used my iPhone camera to test a few compositions and capture a few micro-environmental images.


In ‘Dry Planet’ I wanted to show the similarity between the dry, white clay in the drainage patterns to the white clouds in the sky.

The dry drainage is waiting for more rain from those heavy clouds in the sky.

‘Dry Stream Bed’ features the same drainage as in ‘Anticipation’, from another view point.

The dry mud cracks into segments resembling a picture puzzle.

More scouting photos to come later,
