EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the night sky over the Red Deer River valley in Alberta, Canada. Taken on September 21,2013, it showcases a stunning display of stars illuminating the unique rock formations known as hoodoos. The soft glow from a waning gibbous moon adds an ethereal touch to this nightscape. Highway 10 east of Drumheller serves as the vantage point for this extraordinary scene. The constellations are clearly visible, with the iconic Big Dipper prominently shining above. Against a backdrop of deep blues and purples, these celestial bodies create a captivating contrast with the earth's sandstone cliffs and eroded spires. The geological wonders found in this region are truly awe-inspiring. Erosion has sculpted these sedimentary rocks into intricate shapes, forming an arid landscape that exudes both barrenness and beauty simultaneously. This area is part of Dinosaur Provincial Park, recognized as a World Heritage Site due to its rich fossil deposits. Alan Dyer's expert photography skillfully captures not only nature's grandeur but also our connection to space and time. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of how small we are in comparison to the vastness of our universe while appreciating Earth's remarkable landscapes and natural phenomena.
