I took this picture as I was driving a grain truck, pulling a wheat combine, just north of Rapid City, South Dakota, in August of 1991. The area looked familiar, and I said to myself "This looks like a scene from Dances With Wolves." Not long after, I found out why it resonated - I was looking out over the valley where they filmed the Indian Village scenes for that movie. I later got to visit the film site, which was a pretty extraordinary experience.
