Landscape and Outdoor Images from the beautiful Black Hills, South Dakota and around.

Zen.
As the light of the dawn slowly began to take over the stars in the sky I was blessed with this eerie like sight. The mist coming off from the lake produced thick foggy layer at the bottom. It was such a peaceful and surreal image to see, a Zen moment.
Afloat.
The rising pink supermoon, Easter is right around the corner.

There is something about snow and winter that absorbs and dampens surrounding sound for even a quieter ambience. And the contrast between the setting sun and the snow can often get surreal. A soothing sunset over the frozen Sheridan Lake.
