Yellow Mounds Overlook Badlands National Park

Rounded clay hills glow with bands of yellow, rose, and gray at Yellow Mounds Overlook in Badlands National Park. Pastel sky and ribbons of green prairie weave through the scene, while the distant badlands wall lines the horizon.

I made this photograph from the overlook on Badlands Loop Road as soft evening light spread across the mounds. I waited for a break in the clouds and framed a wide view so the curving road and layered hills guide the eye toward the far ridge.
