Running Horses

These are a few of our mares running on the range north of the ranch. They are heading for the windmill last summer.

Theodore Brown

I have been printing photos of the Fort McDermitt Elders I took quite a few years ago and am still taken aback when I see these wonderful faces. Theodore Brown was one of the most respected cowboys who worked for many ranches in the northern part of Nevada.

Curly Top

For some reason this year's calf crop were great models. I'm fortunate a black calf stayed behind the stark white calf long enough to make a better image.

Sunset Through His Eye

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 10:03:30 -0700

I was trying out a new lens and was pleased with this result. Walking through the corrals always seems to bring good images.

Rural Road

While driving home from a photo shoot I looked in my rear view mirror and noticed this scene. How nice to see a cattle sign not full of bullet holes.

Two Part Harmony

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:59:04 -0700

While waiting for the guys to work lambs for shipping I noticed these calves enjoying the sun and chewing their cud.

Whiskers

Fri, 19 Jun 2009 10:55:53 -0700

While the guys were gathering some mares and colts I had the chance to make some pictures. Back lighting helped show all their young whiskers and goatees.

shearing time

Tue, 14 Apr 2009 10:40:37 -0700

We always shear around the 1st of April, and we use family, friends and workers to get the job done. This is Julia Dufurrena helping move the ewes up the chute to the shearing truck.

Calf hiding in sage

Mon, 09 Feb 2009 15:47:15 -0700

Shortly everyone around here will be calving. I caught this little guy peeking around a big batch of sagebrush last spring.

Desert Sky 12/08

Wed, 31 Dec 2008 13:29:01 -0700

The skies over our northwest Nevada ranch continue to amaze me, and I can't seem to stop making photographs each time an evening like this occurs.

Moonrise 9/14/2008

Tue, 16 Sep 2008 17:52:20 -0700

When I was leaving from a painting/photography workshop Sophie Sheppard and I presented at her farm in Lake City, I was treated to this beautiful moonrise coming over the Nightingale Mountains. The drive from Gerlach to Nixon is always fascinating to me.

Mine Shack Window

Sat, 30 Aug 2008 12:53:36 -0700

Taken from a mine shack on the Jackson Mountains. I liked the matching pastel effect of the interior and the brush outside.

Smokey Forest Lines

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 18:05:58 -0700

My Plumas County family is surrounded in smoke these days. So many forest fires - but I don't see any grazing to combat the low weeds and bushes!

Doe and spotted fawn

Thu, 10 Jul 2008 16:54:44 -0700

One of the benefits of getting up early this time of year is a chance to see all the wildlife. This doe and new fawn ran along my jeep going up Alta Creek Canyon in the Pine Forest Mountains.

Paintbrush

Sun, 22 Jun 2008 08:30:49 -0700

This is one of those years the wildflowers are perfect. Now that I have weaned all my leppie lambs and can get out when the light is perfect, I am in heaven photographing all these beautiful natural gardens.
