This was taken at Red Rock Coulee near Medicine Hat Alberta. I can say it is my new favourite and probably the coolest place to visit in Alberta. The boulders are astonishingly large and red and just sit in the grasslands.
More shots to come......

That looks just like a sedimentary hamburger bun! Cool image!

Cool find - I love that sky too.

Such an interesting rock formation, and beautiful sharp detail. Such an amazing sky also.

Here's another shot. You can see Montana's Sweet Grass Hillls off in the far distance....about 80-100km away.
There are hundreds of these "concretions" just laying around and more popping up as the ground continues to erode away.

What an amazing place for pictures. You could spend hours with all those rock formations. Just love the one with the hamburger rocks. Thanks for sharing.
p.s. The picture in post #12 is not showing up.

And yet another one... there's hundreds of these guys here and all different. I don't think I saw nearly 25% of them:
