I grew up across the street from a large wooded area that we kids used to hike in and explore. One of the most famous landmarks in these woods (for town folks, anyway) was a spot affectionately known as "the rock". It was actually a series of very large rocks that overlooked our train station and town. You can see quite far from this vantage point and it was also a favorite spot for watching fireworks on the 4th of July, as long as you didn't mind trekking through the woods in total darkness aided by only a flashlight afterwards. I took this photo a few years ago and recently processed in Nik Color Efex Pro 4 and Topaz Texture Effects 2.
