A buck and doe stand beside a magnificent rock formation set ablaze by the waning sunlight, on top of which is perched a bald eagle. A sprawling valley stretches behind them, distant derricks and agricultural shapes suggesting the delicate equilibrium between nature and human intervention. The cloudy sky adds a touch of uncertainty, hinting at the potential for change and transformation.
