Easter Badlands

[Cecil Whitt]

Something from this spring...an old favorite area. It's an Instagram thing these days and what was once a by yourself thing is now out and found out. I fear that it might be loved to death and destroyed, C.

Welcome to FocalWorld Cecil!

I can't tell you how happy it makes me to have you sharing your incredible photography here with us! I have enjoyed your photography for years, and your desert photography has inspired me for many more.

This is a great way to introduce yourself and your photography. I do agree so many of these lesser known areas are getting loved to death. Fortunately when I have been out there I only see maybe 1 or 2 others at most, sometimes still none. But I was last out there 2 years ago, so not sure how it might have changed since then.

Love the low light and the clouds in this. Its' a different angle then I think I have shot. But what is really kind of mind blowing out there is there really is limitless compositions.

Wow - an outstanding way to introduce your work - welcome. I love the light and the clouds behind these formations.

Looks like a beautiful place. Hope it gets to stay that way.

Those are some interesting structures and and you have captured it well - the light is perfect.

You captured such a variety of different stages of weathering in these structures, and the light filtering through the clouds is beautiful. I'm looking forward to more from you!

Welcome to FW, Cecil! Gorgeous image. I remember when the 2nd parking lot at the Bisti went in & my heart sank. It's a big enough area that the last time I was there (March 2020), it was still easy to be alone, though.

Wow, incredible rock formations. one must wonder how old they are and what forces of nature were required to form such fantastic shapes. The mind boggles. Welcome to FW.
