Using historic photos taken from 1875-1935, photographer Paul Horsted has "re-photographed" the major towns (and many other areas) of the Black Hills of South Dakota, combining "then & now" into a unique form of art. A new book featuring these images has now been released...for ordering inforrmation, visit http://www.dakotaphoto.com/web-content/Pages/books.html.
