04_Crazy Horse Monument, SD.jpg

In the same State South Dakota, about 17 miles (27 km) from Mount Rushmore, a much bigger monument has been being carved out from Thunderhead Mountain. It's a privately funded monument, managed by some nonprofit organization, as they did not accept funding from the Federal. It's also situated on a private land considered sacred by some Oglala Lakota. It's a monument to the Oglala Lakota war hero Crazy Horse.

I like the detail and tight framing in this well composed capture. So worthy of a photograph. The history of this sculpture and Crazy Horse is fascinating and also sad in many ways. I have always admired the Lakota and this is an appropriate monument for the Lakota and their struggles. VV
