Badlands National Park South Dakota Ornament

Capturing the beauty and grandeur of the Badlands, nature photography highlights the rocky outcropping of spires and pinnacles as they are featured in this scenic photo. The clear blue sky and green grasslands of the mixed-grass prairie adds a touch of colour to the rugged landscape while shadows fill the fissures and cracks. Parallel striations or ridges of the eroding buttes create layers of subtle colours of reds, tans, browns and grey, in the rock strata. The Badlands are located in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
