Covering a broad swathe of southern and eastern Alberta, the Canadian Badlands are a unique place to explore. Eons of compressed sea deposits have been carved by glaciation and subsequent erosion into a striking landscape of strangely sculpted formations and rolling prairies bisected by coulees (deep gulches or ravines with sloping sides) and deep river valleys. This image was taken in the Badlands at Dinosaur Provincial Park. The area is well known for being one of the greatest dinosaur fossil beds in the world. Thirty-nine dinosaur species have been discovered at the park and more than 500 specimens have been removed and exhibited in museums around the world. Its significance justified it becoming a World Heritage Site in 1979. I didn't come across any dinosaurs or their bones but I did find some beauty in the eroded shapes and the cloud formations.

As an avid photographer for many years, my tendency is to choose subjects with potential rather than things that look good to begin with and therein lies my challenge. I often look for an odd angle or composition and like most photographers, have become a keen observer. Seeking the unusual and putting a different slant on the very usual are important concepts to me. My philosophy is - photograph for oneself, be observant and strive for originality but most of all have fun. My personal perception doesn't always meet popular validation, so If someone likes what I produce, that's a bonus. All images are copyrighted 2008-2024 CHROMATICVISTA PHOTOGRAPHY.
