Silhouette at Ghost Ranch
surprising deers at Ghost ranch: mum and young son
painters at Ghost Ranch
Cow boy at Eaves Movie Ranch
with genuine hat
...a charming model...

cowboy riding his horse
sharpening his knife
and in the dim light of his jail cell
or showing their beautiful boots
and using the lasso
we said good by to our model
...the wooden chapel
and our instructors
 and caught by a snow shower on our way back to the studio!
I saw this athletic guy at his door step
Close up on this homeless guy sitting with his dogs in his arms
I connected with this guy...
who let me do a close up of his hands
