Black And White Photos

The photo presented above, although in black and white, is both extremely sharp and clear. To achieve such level of clarity in black and white is extremely hard. LINK

Been close to there, I went and see the Blue Thunder air show at Ellsworth Air Force Base In Rapid City S.D. instead.

Mount Rushmore National Memorial

The four figures carved in stone on Mount Rushmore represent the first 150 years of American history. The birth of our nation was guided by the vision and courage of George Washington. Thomas Jefferson always had dreams of something bigger, first in the words of the Declaration of Independence and later in the expansion of our nation through the Louisiana Purchase. Preservation of the union was paramount to Abraham Lincoln but a nation where all men were free and equal was destined to be. At the turn of the Twentieth Century Theodore Roosevelt saw that in our nation was the possibility for greatness. Our nation was changing from a rural republic to a world power. The ideals of these presidents laid a foundation for our nation as solid as the rock from which their figures are carved. Each man possessed great skills and leadership of the brand our nation needed for the times.
I have been to Rapid City, South Dakota but never made it to Mount Rushmore.Which we also call the Black Hills. They also have an airforce base ther where I watched the Thunderbirds do there air show. LINK
