Did you know that there are the Badlands in South Dakota, as well as the Badlands of North Dakota? I never knew this until last week. They rest in the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and that is where these two images were taken as the moon was finally setting in the west~
I didn't know that, either, but fantastic shots! I love the layers - Love that sky too!
ReplyDeleteI really love that faded moon!! Nice shot!!

This answers the burning question, "how high the moon". It has such a wonderful translucence in these shots.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!

Marvellous phot of the setting moon. The moon looks so fragile.

So very beautiful these two photos!! My grandmother's second husband, we called him grandfather, because he was to us, had a farm in Dakota.. I think it was the north..
