Description
Some of you have asked for a closer shot of this awe inspiring mountain carving. This is as close as the public can get for safety reasons and this shot was zoomed on a 17.5 - 45mm lens. You can see scaffolding on the head and white paint marks for the horses head, for a closer look I suggest zoom.

This is amazing and a stunning capture my friend.
What a task it is...
I am speechless, what an impressive shot, Jeff!
This isn't a comment on your photo as I think you have shot it beautifully, but just to be the devil's advocate, would they have gotten away with doing this environmental vandalism at Yosemite? Would they be able to carve, lets say for example Donald Rumsfeld's big fat head in El Capitan!!!! If not, why not? Mount Rushmore was carved in less environmentally aware times.....but this? We could stop the water at Niagara Falls and carve a huge bust of Donald Trump into the rock face!
I love this shot. I have waited and waited for this incredible carving to be finished. It has been too long in recognizing a legend to the native people. I'm so happy to see this, but I sure wish they would work as hard on this as they did with Rushmore.
How long have they been doing this? Well-lit!
Wow what an incredible carving im amazed superb work !!
they need a black and decker
wonderful
admirable task! the mind behind the concept of this scuplture was so brilliant. your capture is outstanding, and the sense of scale breathtaking. thanks for sharing! love it.
Wonderful image. Well done
Truly amazing Photo, great composition
interesant!
We have many mountains and rock cliffs...I absolutely fail to see the arguement against this carving (I've heard them all). It will be wonderful. Thanks for showing us this work of art in progress.
I won't get involve in the for and against argument of the carving. I do find the work done mind boggling! Excellent shot Jeff!
This is of monumental proportions - for sure, I would love to see it ready in my lifetime - probably too much to ask for and an impossible task for some - others could ! Besides all that - marvellous job you did, Jeff BB
Wonderful capture and image !
Wonderful Jeff, hope you enjoyed your Holiday.
Excellent and very interesting shot. Thanks for sharing!
thats really cool, it is amazing how they can do that
Wonderful capture! :) I hope they get to finish it some day.
Super capture and POV Jeff! I have not seen it from this side. The bull dozer gives great perspective. Dana
Fantastic image. I like very much the colors
This is such a huge work and I am sure it will be great when it is finished. A great capture.
Yeah, I want this to be completed !
Thanks :) Fascinating watching the progress. A shame that it's completion is so far off. I would have loved to see it. Doesn't look like it will be in my lifetime though.
I've been here, years ago. I was a little bit disappointed.
Amazing, to see this in progress! It boggles the mind to think of all the rock that will be blasted away and hauled off. Wow. Thanks for sharing this!
GREAT SHOT
wonderful!!!!!
