A Big Horn ram’s age is usually indicated by the size of his horns, especially if they are broken at the tip from battles with other rams over the years. I came across a group of rams grazing in the sweet clover. The broken, jagged edge of this ram's horns caught some of the clover, adding color to his appearance.

After an evening of hiking in Badlands National Park in the middle of Fall, the kids and I enjoyed a picnic lunch. While they ate, I wandered along the nearby stream enjoying the water flowing through the dry and rugged terrain. Several years in a row of drought, the water in the fall gave hope for the coming year.

After an evening of exploring, I headed for a favorite spot along the shores of Sylvan Lake. I adore these reeds, adding texture to the glossy lake on a calm evening. The quiet deepened as the sky sang the last song of the day.

Fresh powder across the open prairie and huge fluffy clouds beckoned me. I grabbed my camera pack, tripod and slipped into my winter boots, thinking, “It won’t be deep enough for snowshoes.” Was I ever wrong! Hiking the 1/3 mile to the top of Glorious Splendor (my favorite prairie viewing hill close to my house) is a breeze in dry climates.…
My daughter and I walked down one of our pasture trails as the light faded with the intentions of creating long exposure photographs. The light was perfect after sunset to for long smooth wisps as the clouds moved east. The darkening night sky allows for the longer exposures that are needed to accent the dramatic clouds. Headlight trails from cars on the interstate and…

This is Stella. She was the start of a longhorn herd on a family ranch. Though she may appear intimidating, she was perfectly harmless and rather content to let me take her portrait, posing for me as I crouched near the ground to add the clouds behind her.

There's something to me about the granite lines of the rock that come out in a black and white photo. The smoothing of the water and clouds from a long exposure add a touch of movement to a still image.

I was given the opportunity to soar over Badlands National Park in late summer. It was incredible to view the landscape from the air with the windows open and my camera hanging out. The textures found in the Badlands, mixed with the angled sun create great natural contrast and interesting perspectives from the surrounding prairie.

Longhorns are beautiful with so much character in their varied colors and tones, but what captivates me most is, of course, their horns. I chose high key black and white in my final process for this photograph. Shooting from low to the ground in order to isolate the horns against the sky.
I didn’t grow up with horses and wasn’t really one of those horse crazy girls. Now I can’t imagine my life without them. I've learned so much about trust and patience from our horses. A day with them will clear just about any blues.
