We Stood Underneath the Skies, Overcast as They Were (Badlands National Park)
We Stood Underneath the Skies, Overcast as They Were
And talked while sharing stories of the American West
There are many sights, some with a sad and horrific tale of deeds done
But nature doesn’t stop as the prairie grasses sway with the wind
For across this enchanted land, history had taken place
Under the towering pinnacles of the Badlands eroding in time.
Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one afternoon in Badlands National Park from an overlook at Panorama Point. With the overcast skies, I decided to angle my SLR camera slightly downward, minimizing that while also attempting to add a since of depth across the badlands formations from this overlook. I later used a Pro Contrast and Skylight CEP filter in Capture NX2 for the final image to address what I felt was the more muted colors from the overcast skies above.
