Trees at the Black Hills Overlook, March 9, 2017

You can see just a hint of a natural arch in the top center of the frame. This is a fun hike, and most likely windy up top any day of the year. I like the arrangement of trees across the foreground, while the grassy hills in light and shadow lead to the rocky top, and the clouds provide soft textures to contrast with the sharper edges in the rest of the scene.
