Je préfére la petite version par rapport à la grande en raison du bruit.

Une sculture bien mis en valeur par ce cadrage (meme si j'aurais préféré un cadrage un peu plus haut pour enlever les maisons).
De bonnes couleurs qui mettent bien en valeur la roche.

Wow! It's sad to destroy nature like that, but it's quite a project. Thank you for the informative note. This is a simple, 'what-it-looks-like' picture, which is a format I like very much. It's a pity you had to compress the large version that much, I guess it's all the trees that give an un-compressable texture.

Thanks for the note Noel. Though this picture is not a sbbeautifgul as the others, you make it more culturally significant because of your backgrounder. Anyway, this picture is simple and straighforward because of your composition.

Crazy horse make me think at a cabret from Paris but here it is totally different. Your note is very instructive and I like your new travelogue with a very complete story.
Well done, Norbert!

I always keep you for the end, until I have enough time ti read your intersting notes carefully..
I think you chosed the best possible shooting angle, catching the head's profile, and a very nice view of the mountains and the forest. I wouldn't choose a large version in this case, Norbert, I think the small verstion is good enough, and together with the excellent note it completes a great job. Very well done.

Personnellement la petite version est beaucoup plus détaillée.
Je trouve que sur la large version un léger bruit se fait ressentir.
L'image et très bien présentée bravo Norbert

A very interesting shot, Norbert. Good detail in the rocks. It's fun to imagine what the final memorial might look like. Great note, as usual.

Beautiful view. I have seen many version of this touristic place, but this one it present the Mt.Rushmore in complete new aspect. This point of view it open to us the new look of the wide landscape. The white houses with the green roofs they are beautiful and very attractive. Again a good note, thanks.

This is something new to me!!! Very interesting subject and good note. I guess you're aware the details to get better in the photo so I guess I'll pass that.

What a incerdible story. You should go there every couple of years to take shots of the progress. At the speed its going, you would probably to live real old to get the final photo ;-)

I like the smaller version of your shot better.

I have read about this monument and have seen television specials about it, but they all left me frustrated because I felt they did not give me a good view of the monument. I am happy to say I am no longer frustrated as your photo affords me that good view. Vielen Dank, Norbert! I like the fact you included the buildings in your composition as a reference point of the scale of this.

This site is indeed a wonder in progress, The involvement of that family is amazing (I saw a french documentary about them). Here the houses gives us an idea of the scale of things... The value of the subject makes us forget about the "noise in the large version".

This is a great addition to the "Faces of nature" theme.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for the great note.
