I agree with Walt Whitman, who is quoted to have said, "As to scenery (giving my own thought and feeling), while I know the standard claim is that Yosemite, Niagara Falls, the Upper Yellowstone and the like afford the greatest natural shows, I am not so sure but the prairies and plains, while less stunning at first sight, last longer, fill the esthetic sense fuller, precede all the rest, and make North America's characteristic landscape."
The Canadian Prairies are partially covered by grasslands, plains, and lowlands, mostly in the southern regions. This image was taken in Southern Alberta, just north of the Hamlet of Rosebud which is less than a half hour southeast of Drumheller. The image captures the expanse of green fields flowing eastward towards the Big Sky.
