Antique Framed Print : Earth pillars (hoodoos) in Alberta badlands Canada
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Earth pillars (hoodoos) in Alberta badlands Canada
Earth pillars. Pillars of soft, sedimentary rock topped by flat caps of harder rock. Earth pillars, or hoodoos, are formed due to the presence of large pieces of hard rock in semi-arid regions of sedimentary rock that experience occasional heavy downpours. The rain weathers away unprotected material leaving behind columns of rock under hard caps. Photographed near Drumheller in Alberta, Canada

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Earth pillars, also known as hoodoos, located in the Alberta badlands of Canada. These geological wonders are a result of the intricate interplay between erosion, weathering, and unique rock formations. The pillars consist of soft sedimentary rock that is crowned by flat caps made from harder rock. In semi-arid regions with occasional heavy downpours, such as this area in Alberta, large pieces of hard rock play a crucial role in shaping these extraordinary structures. When rainwater pours over the landscape, it selectively weathers away the unprotected material while leaving behind resilient columns of rock beneath their protective caps. The photograph was taken near Drumheller, an iconic location renowned for its remarkable geomorphology and breathtaking landscapes. As you gaze upon this image captured by Science Photo Library, you can almost feel the passage of time etched into each pillar's surface. This picture not only highlights nature's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to our planet's ever-changing beauty. It reminds us how forces like erosion and weathering sculpt our environment over millions of years. Let yourself be transported to this enchanting corner of Alberta where Earth pillars rise majestically against the vastness of Canada's badlands – a true marvel worth exploring and protecting for generations to come.
