South Dakota Trip
2) Love the grass, clouds, sky, colors. Not sure about that particular bush, but the composition is great and it's a lovely image.
3) Probably my favorite here. Did you use a UV/haze/CPL on any of these? In this case (middday shot) a CPL might have helped eliminate the haze in the distance and also pop the color of the sky. Did you try tweaking the clarity at all?
4) What's not to love?
5) Nice sunset. Perhaps bump the contrast/clarity on this one to detail the grass a bit more?
Overall,
It's crazy to think about...I can absolutely understand why this terrain earned the name of "bad land" as early settlers crossed it on their way west.Rob pix4u2 wrote: Beautiful works especially like 3- can you imagine arriving on the edge of the badlands in a conestoga wagon on the way west ?
The lookout points have signs that give some interesting history. The men from the caravans had to climb to the tops of some of the plateaus that you see in the distance and pick grass by hand to feed their livestock because nothing grows at the bottom where the animals and wagons were trying to make their way through.
Thanks, I agree on the road being cut off. That's the only thing I didn't like when I saw the finished product of this. If it wasn't about 1,400 miles away I'd go re-shoot it!john_m wrote: Great job on all, but I will say that #4 is my fovorite (the dirt road). The only thing that I wish, is that the left side of the road didnt get cut off. Great job non the less though bud!
