Taken on 11-28-10 with my Canon 50D in Apache Junction Arizona, USA. Details: focal length 26mm, ISO 160, aperture F8, exposure 1/125. Processed 5 images in Photomatix HDR software, finalized in CS3. I love this in black and white. It was a cloudy day and the light was changing by the second making it difficult to get the right exposure. I think I nailed this one though. What do you think. For all you black and white lovers this would make a nice addition to you collection. Featured Here 482 views, 10 favs 10-17-11

These mountains were named for the many legends that surround them. The Lost Dutchman gold mine lies somewhere in these mountains. Whether this mine ever existed is unclear but many have and still do look for it.

The Indians have a legend of the Little People or “Tuar-Tums,” who live below the Salt River Valley, or Valley of the Sun. Sources have claimed that “little men” that live within the mountain have been seen on top of ridges in the Superstitions , as if they were guarding something such as an entrance to an underground system.

The Superstition Mountains, rise to a height of 3,000 feet above the surrounding desert floor and dominates the eastern fringe of the Salt River Valley. Mountain peaks tower 6,000 feet above sea level and deep canyons dissect the wilderness region.

The gateway to the Superstition Mountains in USA is the Goldfield Ghost Town. An authentic 1890’s ghost town with underground mine tours. Only narrow gauge railroad in operation in Arizona (36 inches). The
Goldfield Ghost Town, as all ghost towns would not be complete without horses, wagons, carriages and of course a saloon.
