This was the closest we could get to the carvings at Mount Rushmore due to the government shut-down in Dec. 2018. I still like the shot very much.

My wife did not want to go to Mount Rushmore. I thought I would be in and out withing 30 minutes. People was I wrong. We ended up eating and decided to stay for the light show, but the light show started an hour after we were told by a tourist and it started raining. Although we left early, I feel this is a great shot.
