A View from Up High (Badlands National Park)
A high point along the boardwalk portion of the Cliff Shelf Nature Trail with a view looking to the southeast. Given the high point where I was located and a slight angling of my Nikon SLR camera downward, I wanted to capture that sweeping view with the prairie grass, trees and badlands while minimizing the overcast skies above. 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.
