Good morning Hive family and all the photographers lovers around the world, now I am bouncing of yesterday's post of my traveling journey through some states and locations I had stopped through. This place right here was a must stop in my lifetime, I just had to go here, it was a calling for me to do so. This is Bear Lodge, and in the Lakota Matȟó Thípila, also in Crow Daxpitcheeaasáao. This for me was so epic and the spirituality of it was something I cant or wont put into words but this place is the only thing like it in the world of this size. If anyone knows this place and why I am not using the name what the white man has gave it, their is a reason, its not what this place is called, so choose not to say them words because this place is far from evil. Now a little history is that Bear Lodge is a butte, as it is possibly laccolithic. It is composed of igneous rock in the Bear Lodge Ranger District of the Black Hills, near Hulett and Sundance in Crook County of northeastern Wyoming, above the Belle Fourche River. This massive rock or should I say tree stump which many believe too rises 1,267 feet (386 m) above the Belle Fourche River, it stands 867 feet (264 m) from summit to base also the summit is 5,112 feet (1,558 m) above sea level. Not to get into con-spiracy sides of things at all but I don't move on His-Story anymore, I keep it 50/50 on things taught to me these days. Anyways if you ever have the chance to go here, you wont regret it, for the spiritual people it is a must for you. Now these are pre-shots I took before arriving, yes with my phone too. Later on you will see posts with my best work now doubt on some landscape shots of this amazing place. The cover shot is fitting to be first, why you might ask is that the clouds gave this bear lodge the shadow of someone walking to me, so cool to witness this and get these shots. In the next shot below here is a bit further back and it was an awesome day with some really nice clouds coming and going. Remember my phone is a bit old here, I actually still only have the one lens on it, now these days with the new phones their is three lens, so take that into consideration and just get excited to see when the edited real camera shots come.
Here is another close up shot of Bear lodge, another cool shot with some amazing clouds passing with beautiful trees all around this magnificent place.
In this last shot here since I don't have three lens on my phone on this trip I did do some panorama type shots so you can see more within the frame of the shot. Hope your excited for the things to come from me, as much as I am to show you all what I have been up to with some camera actions. Appreciate you all for stopping by and I appreciate you all for letting me be me as I still have so much love here in our community, have a blessed one to you all, stay tuned more to come.
Anyways appreciate everyone feedback hope you have enjoyed my shots and post today' thanks for stopping by, Have a blessed one and thank you for coming in and checking out my shot's of the day. Stay tuned and enjoy my future shots in the world of photography, thru my lens.
