Badland Curve And Clouds in Badlands National Park, South Dakota

Here's an image from Badlands National Park that I took in the morning after being out all night to photograph black-footed ferrets in the neighboring Buffalo Gap National Forest. I had waited near the ferrets until first light, so I didn't get to this neat low ridge until some time later. Fortunately, the small patch of clouds that morning was in the right location.
