Natural landscapes: flowering in the badlands

SPRING GROWTH AT DINOSAUR PROVINCIAL PARK, NEAR BROOKS, ALBERTA
I drove two hours from my Calgary home to photograph sunrise, but cloudy conditions forced me to improvise. This is one result, made at a very shallow depth of field so the background would complement, rather than compete, with the desert shrub.

I really enjoyed this Badlands scene, Frank…such a unique landscape there, you captured it beautifully.
