17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Everywhere the sunlight touches

The sunlight washes over a dirt road through a coulee in rural Saskatchewan, Canada. This photo is taken from the edge of a buffalo jump. In the days of the First Nations, they would herd bison over the edge of this cliff to fall to their deaths. Now it's a place for witnessing beauty instead of death.
