Badlands

I recently went on a solo camping trip to Badlands National Park in South Dakota. I took my camera with the intention of working on my landscape photography skills but, to my surprise, I ended up taking quite a few portraits. There were bison and prairie dogs all over the park, especially in the area near the free, Sage Creek Campground.
