Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Fred G Hill

It’s no wonder South Dakota’s Badlands provide fascination for this Burlington photographer — the landscape is barren but infinitely “sculpted” by eons of geological forces. Though one of the U.S. national parks, the place looks positively surreal through Hill’s lens. The pictured image is part of his aptly named exhibit, “A Trip to the Badlands … & Other Recent Photographs,” on view through November at Burlington’s Fletcher Free Library.
