Badlands. Water-eroded " badlands" landscape, showing several deep interlocking ravines
Badlands. Water-eroded " badlands" landscape, showing several deep interlocking ravines. This terrain is produced by differential erosion of horizontal beds of soft, sedimentary rock, such as sandy clay, that is not protected by vegetation and subjected to occasional deluges of rain. The ravines become heavily scored by drainage channels as they develop. Badlands are found in the semi-arid interior of North America and in North Africa. The name comes from the French explorers who described the area as mauvaise terres a traverser (bad lands to cross). Photographed near Onefour, southern Alberta, Canada

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Badlands, a unique landscape formed by water erosion. The image captures a vast expanse of interlocking ravines that have been deeply carved into the soft sedimentary rock over time. These ravines are a result of differential erosion, where horizontal beds of sandy clay are gradually worn away by occasional heavy rainfall. The absence of vegetation in this arid region leaves the vulnerable rock exposed to the forces of nature, resulting in an intricate network of drainage channels that score the ravines. This remarkable geological phenomenon can be found not only in North America's semi-arid interior but also in parts of North Africa. Photographed near Onefour, southern Alberta, Canada, this picture perfectly encapsulates the raw and untouched beauty of these badlands. The name "bad lands" originated from French explorers who described this area as mauvaise terres à traverser (bad lands to cross), highlighting its challenging terrain. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this breathtaking scene with impeccable detail and clarity. With its striking composition and vivid colors, this print is sure to captivate anyone who appreciates geology and natural landscapes.
