Seating just six people, the Little Church was first erected by Drumheller contractor Tyvge “Tig” Seland in cooperation with the Drumheller Ministerial Association in 1958. It was reconstructed by inmates of the Drumheller Institution in 1991. The Little Church is always open to the public and free to enter. I struggled to make a compelling photo of this subject, in part because it was difficult to get far enough away to let the awesome badlands landscape tower over the building and in part because there are a lot of distracting elements around the church–namely a bench and a litter container. But all the snow, combined with a glowing blue sky, made an attractive composition possible. Nikon D7100, tripod, polarizing filter
