This photo was taken by myself this past summer at the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Park in Crow Agency, MT. This park memorializes one of the last armed efforts of the Northern Plains Indians to preserve their way of life. Here in 1876, 263 soldiers and attached personnel of the U.S. Army, including Lt. Col. George A. Custer, met death at the hands of several thousand Lakota and Cheyenne warriors.

Hmmmmmmmm this is hard, I like both. But I really like the contrast between the warm golden foreground and the cool trees in the background in your pic.

Nerd, I dig your photo: great colors, beautiful landscape, expert framing. However, I’ve got to go with Chris’s photo on this one. Perhaps it’s the black-and-white perspective, perhaps it’s the gentle nature of the horses. Who knows? Nice touch adding historical info to your photo, however. You get some points for that. Love you! (Don’t make any new friends because I voted for Chris!)
