ReplyDeleteOh Les, what a marvellous thing to say !
DeleteGreat photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteSybil., these are so good. I hope that you have more to post. I've enjoyed seeing these photos so much. Everything is so vast, remote, desolate - but also very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI loved the openness. The sky is so very BIG there. Big and beautiful.
DeleteI have never seen a prairie before but I do hope I will someday. The last picture is spectacular!
ReplyDeleteI sat and watched that glorious sunset and felt so fortunate to be there. Thanks Barbara.
DeleteThe feeling of the long lonesome prairie comes through these pics... That sunset pic, like everyone else said, is the coolest.
