Rick,
Those bushes really tell the story, too bad they don't stand out more. But then again, if they were greener, brighter, then it just might be natural or tell the story any better. Harsh light for a harsh environment, so that certainly appropriate here. The wash works well with the composition with the nice lead-in line.
Perhaps not something to hang on the wall, but certainly showcases the environment and tells the nature story.

A good documentary shot of this area. The harshness does reduce the appeal a little but they call them 'bad lands' for a reason. Lots of little jewels to be discovered there--like the fg bush and the sculptured layers above it. Must have been a wonderful time wandering around here.

This image has so much to see in the shapes of the rocks. The monochrome color helps to ignite the imagination. Like finding shapes in the clouds... Hope the bushes have deep roots!
