Natural landscapes: the epic valley view

COLUMBIA RIVER VALLEY, RADIUM, BRITISH COLUMBIA

As Highway 93 heads south from this town, there are spectacular viewpoints to see over the valley and Rocky Mountains to the west. I especially like the grasslands landscape, but as I looked through the camera viewfinder, I knew adding a person to the scene would give you something to rest your eyes on in the bottom half of the composition. So I turned on the camera timer and galloped down the hill a half-dozen times to make exposures. This one is the best of the bunch. Here’s the scene in full colour: https://bit.ly/WalkingInRadium.
