My get pushed challenge from Oriahna Perez @oreos808 was to photograph Kansas landscape, so on Friday I headed out to the Konza Prairie Biological Station and walked the trail. This was taken near one of the highest points on the landscape, looking up toward the top. I posted a picture looking back down here: http://365project.org/mcsiegle/365/2015-01-16
That gives a better view of the lay of the land.

So, did you take the photo, or did you have this photo taken of you in the background? Either way, I love how it depicts the scale. My stepdad just sent me an article in the Topeka Capital Journal about the photography opportunities at the Konza Prairie. Nicely done!
@kareenking I took the photo. At the top left is a couple ahead of me. I'm about to post a photo taken of them at close range. We should get together sometime in the spring at the Konza Prairie for a photo walk.
@kittikat This is the Flint Hills and it is wonderful rolling prairie hills -- with fewer trees than other hilly regions of the US. Out in western Kansas there is a lot of very flat land where you can see forever. We are closer to the eastern end.
