Mount Rushmore at Dusk ~ June 11 [11]

Mount Rushmore National Memorial, South Dakota

We stopped by Keytone and Mount Rushmore on our way home. I'm still swamped with work and images--I haven't quite finished even going through the last of the images taken on our last day in Yellowstone. Many thanks to everyone who has commented on my images. Particularly since I've been remiss in getting around to everyone else's. At this rate it'll take me quite a long time to get caught up. :(

I've never been to the monument and I thought, at first, that this was a miniature reproduction built on top of a small building - all before I read the caption.

Beautiful photo - intense sky.

(enjoying your photos!)

Fantastic photo. Only improvement would be to have the small group in the left of the photo to be walking towards the monument. This is as close as you can probably get naturally to capturing the essence of the scene in Speilberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind where the affected ones were drawn to Devil's Monument. If this had been taken prior to the movie I think you could have made a case that Spielberg got his inspiration from you. Your wildlife photos are fabulous...I am impressed.

Greg, this is beautiful. The colours in the sky are amazing.
I would like to see this once but it's a very long detour on a USA trip.
