Photo of the Day

"Courted by an early moon, Square Butte unfolds in spacious grandeur 20 miles [32 kilometers] west of Great Falls. A backdrop in numerous Russell paintings, this mile-wide [1.6-kilometer-wide] tableland of rock can be seen from the town's outskirts, and Charley sometimes rode out to view it for inspiration when he was 'fighting a painting.'"
