Bright Golden Aster In Dry Grass
I like how you get a splash of colour in a dry and drab background of dead grass. The park labeled this as "Chrysopsis villosa", but apparently that name is now out of date - it's "Heterotheca villosa var. villosa" Species: Heterotheca villosa (hairy false goldenaster, hairy goldenaster)

Lumpy Knoll
I'm guessing there is something special about that top piece of ground that stopped it from eroding as quickly as everything else. I wonder if it is a lichen crust. John Harvey Photo > Banff in Mid Week > Drumheller > Lumpy Knoll

Cracked Earth
I like this cracked mud - it made one of the most uniform histograms I've ever seen. John Harvey Photo > Banff in Mid Week > Drumheller > Cracked Earth

Eroded Mud In Shadow
The blue is backscatter - light from the sky. This particular soil was fine so it made soft curves - other areas were harder and made crumbly edges. John Harvey Photo > Banff in Mid Week > Drumheller > Eroded Mud In Shadow

Cactus Patch
A sign said the catus grows by the inch and dies by the foot. It was pretty common but if was close to the path it looked pretty ratty. John Harvey Photo > Trips out of the Country > Grand Canyon Road Trip > Day 5 of Grand Canyon Trip > Cactus Patch
