The creek is almost entirely stormwater fed, so it runs year-round and can have some pretty substantial flash floods after summer storms

Black and white pinhole photograph. There is a dirt trail winding up a hillside. On the left is a clump leafless trembling aspen trees and prairie grassland extending into the horizon. The cloudless sky is darkened to nearly black (due in part to the orange filter)

A wide pinhole photograph of a green wheatfield taken on a windy day. The long exposure (about 10 seconds) has blurred the wheat to a soft green which fades into the hills in the distance

Chris Manderson @bouteloua.ca · Aug 2

Thanks! yes, it does - it was very windy (actually in the middle of a wind farm) and the long exposure just blurred everything all together
