I am enjoying & finding your SD gallery very interesting. Congratulations for your contribution and good work at Rosebud.
Considering the amount of snow in SD, and the often high amount of accumulation, I have always been amazed at the low number of snow plows.

".............the alarming rate of alcoholism and teen age suicides at this reservation." This is an understatement, & not new. To an extent a social inequity, or an inadequacy of cultures to compromise, but nothing less than a national disgrace. It is a phenomena which has continued for decades.
Your picture, brings me sadness & memories of my relatively small amount of time teaching on a reservation, and the many, many, many beautiful former native students who have died this way. I have lost count of the number those young that I knew who have died. There is no single answer nor no simple solution. This kind of death represents the result of frustration, unobtainable opportunity, dismal, limited & inadequate resources encountered by native youth at many rural reservations.

Well made specimen view - centered, I think best choice pleasing full-frame ratio, though square may work with this subject, w/plenty environ, appropriate faded desat back provides emphasis to emergent bud and leaf.

Abstract sky (Week 13)

Really interesting graphic - I agree w/bassbone, a single picture but appears as a montage or rather for me I would describe it as triptych panels of sky view variations of architectural line/shade & mass.

Effective presence & placement of this bloom in this airy spring environ. An invisible crop - strength of a proper ratio feels good, really pretty.
