Watching the Prairies But Looking to the Mountains

            While at a roadside pullout along Alberta Provincial Highway No 22 with a view looking to the southwest across some farmland prairie grass to more distance ridges and peaks of the Livingstone Range (with Mount Burke and Sentinel Peak that I identified on the PeakVisor app on my iPhone). My thought on composing this image was to use the high ground I was located on and capture a sweeping view, looking across these rolling hills sides to the more distant mountains. I also angled my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward to bring out more of that look. I also wanted to keep the horizon more less leveled-on with the mountains just above that. I later worked with the ClearView Plus tool in DxO PhotoLab 6 to bring out more of the skies and clouds present, given the afternoon haze that afternoon.
