Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Our great state of South Dakota is abundant with natural beauty, especially in the region of The Black Hills. Along the scenic Needles Highway, near Mt. Rushmore, huge and often quite unique granite rock formations are quite common. They are always interesting to see but especially so under a blue sky at the waters of a calm lake. One day while walking here, I really enjoyed the beauty of these inspiring... Sylvan Lake Reflections.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!

I saw this in the recent reflections contest. I occasionally say "that's a shot I would take." In this case, I did! I sold a piece this past December. We were there last June. You are right. South Dakota has so much beauty to offer, and you do it very well. Keep up the great work.
