Look Up Above the Hill


The majestic president figures sculpted on the magnificent Black Hills are spectacular at Mount Rushmore! The view when I looked up the hill was definitely a treat to the eyes. These photographs were captured during my recent visit to South Dakota.

  1. They are in your “backyard” so to speak…totally amazing images and really puts nature into proper perspective…by comparison we are but dots in an ocean, and yet think we are the best thing since sliced bread. There is do much more you can present with images if you take pictures thus good ๐Ÿ˜Š

    • Hehe, backyard! Yes!! ๐Ÿ˜€ Haha, loved that- Best thing since sliced bread! ๐Ÿ˜€ Thank you so much Gary!! My newly found and an easier way to post, (if not write) regularly, lol.

      • Thank you so much! I feel guilty for not being able to keep up with your posts! But at the same time, I’m glad you are posting at a regular pace. Keep it up!! ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

      • No no, do not feel guilty, feel mortified…no don’t, that was a joke….well the mortified bit was ๐Ÿ˜œ
        It’s hard this regular posting, but I thought it might be beforehand. Re-training the mind is not do easy as I thought ๐Ÿค•

  2. I usually see Mt. Rushmore photographed up-close. Your longshot is striking–a perspective that adds surprising power. Both shots are intriguing. Great post!
