UPDATE: Once upon a time in Noth Dakota.

99 out of 100 times we don't know where a photo was taken. So we stopped asking. But now the man who sold me the photo -David Huff- came up with the most probable solution and a short lecture in geology: 'The photo came from the Red River Valley of North Dakota, and is most likely made there. The Red River Valley is the bed of glaciallake Agassiz. Glaciers periodically coming down from the north blocked the flow of the Red River of the North, forming a huge lake. The sediments (silt derived from the glaciers) formed the extremely flat valley bottom we see today. Now you know more than you wanted to know about the Pleistocene geology of the probable photo site!!' Thanks Dave!
