What an amazing place Mount Rushmore is, the size of the figuers is staggering and the vision to have been able to create it beggers belief.
Your picture does the monument justice and you present it in sharp focus, with good composition, light and shadow, and excellent contrast, thats a great post terratrekking, thanks

Thumbs up Salute!
My family visited Mt. Rushmore in the 1970's. It is an unbelievable sight and a true national treasure. Your image captured it well. Great job indeed!
