Sunset brings out the colors and textures in the landscape, seen from the White River Valley overlook in Badlands National Park. The formation in front of us is known as the Castle.
Frankly, I have seen better sunsets and better images from Badlands. I'll be honest that I mostly want to put one more distinct pin on the map of my pictures created by the Map Group. I like it as a way to keep track of my travels.
Badlands National Park, South Dakota, USA
Badlands are a type of dry terrain where softer sedimentary rocks and clay-rich soils have been extensively eroded. They are characterized by steep slopes and minimal vegetation. You're not alone if you compare this piece of South Dakota with the Mars.

These Hoodoos took millions of years to form and stand 5 to 7 metres tall. Each hoodoo is a sandstone pillar resting on a thick base of shale that is capped by a large stone. Hoodoos are very fragile and can erode completely if their capstone is dislodged (in other words, no climbing allowed). The protected Hoodoos site is a guaranteed spot to see Hoodoos but smaller versions of these sandstone giants can be found all over the Badlands. Vlog Below!!
Old Paria Badlands in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, an extremely colorful landscape that served as a film set for westerns several years ago. Unfortunately, the remains of the former Old Pareah Townsite and Old Paria Movie Set are gone (burned down).

Cheltenham Badlands is in Caledon, Ontario. The formation was exposed by poor farming practices, causing soil erosion and exposing the underlying Queenstown shale. Some texture/effects added to cut the glare in some places; the badlands colors change according to the sky. When sunny, they look orange; when raining they look purplish.

I have added a note where the bison appears in the photo
The Milky Way rises above the "Valley Of Dreams" in the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico.
After an extensive and confusing drive across the Bisti/De-na-zin Wilderness we arrived in the Valley Of Dreams. I started up the Giai GPS app and Wayne Pinkston, Chris Wrey, Sandra Herber and I started into the valley at around 4:00pm. After surveying the area and marking some of the more interesting formations, we returned to the cars for some snacks and rest. There were 4 in the group and at midnight we trekked off once again into the valley, although now its was very dark, so dark that without my headlamp on I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. The movie "Pitch Black" immediately came to mind, and the hair started to rise on the back of my neck. I scoured the area with my torchlight and moved on somewhat at comfort. As we crossed over the ravine and climbed up to the plateau I could here sounds like pebbles falling here and there which reminded me of another movie where a young Jedi is ambushed by the sand people. I think my imagination went into overdrive and I felt a rush of adrenaline. To my relief the path crested and we dropped into the "area of interest" which is a sprawling valley rutted with gutters and crevices as far as the eye could see with maligned and mutated shapes jutting up all over the place, except for now its just eerie shapes silhouetted against a starry sky so bright it almost makes you dizzy looking at it there on this dark moonless night.
We used one small 125 LED panel and bounched that light off some of the rocks off to the right side which picked up some of the color of the natural rock and casts that onto the scene. a tip learned from Wayne.

We just returned from our third visit to Badlands National Park this year. The park is so beautiful and has such a rich wildlife population, it keeps drawing us back.
Driving and hiking in the park, it can be challenging just to decide where to point the camera. In this case, the morning light on the rusty/tan layers of clay rich soil topped by some darker clouds invited me to make a few clicks.
It is always a treat in Badlands National Park when the spring Bighorn lambs start arriving. These two are discovering their natural abilities in maneuvering the precipices even while their umbilical cords are still visible.
Not one of my higher quality images. Conditions were quite dark when I shot this so some substantial rescue work was done in processing. But this ram with massive headgear deserves a moment of fame on Flickr.
I saw this guy early one morning in a ravine, before sunlight made its way to him. After descending as far as I could to get an eye level perspective, I was able to fire off a few shots hoping for something I could post.
