Featured in DSLR Users Only on October 5th, 2009. The setting sun creates a brilliant image of contrasting colour in this HDR landscape image captured in Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park in southern Alberta, Canada. A brightly lit red sandstone outcrop looms in the foreground, while the nearest hoodoos lie in shadow. Further away, across the river valley the hoodoos and cliff faces are lit in brilliant red and orange light. Lastly, the distant Sweet Grass Hills of Montana can be seen on the horizon, beneath the cloudy gray sky, across the Canada-US border. Taken with a Canon Rebel XSi and converted to HDR using Photomatix Pro.

Taken with a Canon Rebel XSi using an 18-55mm lens. No post processing.
