What a cool composition, Suzanne! Were they posing for you? The more shallow depth that shows us the cows in the background just adds so nicely.

@bluechameleon: This shot was entirely candid. Don't think they ever noticed that I was photographing them.
Marcah from Quincy, United States
This is excellent. Love the cowboy way here inspecting,it seems, the quality of the grass for grazing.

@Marcah: Most likely they were merely sharing some secret. ;o)
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
Excellent detail and composition. They almost look like they are dancing in time.

Your shots involving the working cowboys are great. I love Jay Maisel; he is a no b.s. kind of guy.

Like a scene from 'Brokeback mountain'. Wonderful symmetry in the postures, and a great shot, Suzanne. A real feeling of authenticity

Don from spokane, United States
I like how these two wranglers are hunkered down each scrutinizing a piece of grass...or something.
They make a fine subject. The cows and fencing make a fine backdrop. Nice one.

Steve Rice from Olympia, United States
Another brilliant image. The toning you have chosen for this ranch series works so very well. I like this series a lot.

Marcie from United States
Love the processing..but more - I love the composition - the two wranglers squatting in the same position..and the contrasting white of their hats. Wonderful ranching image!

Diane Schuller from Hythe, Canada
I really like these two wranglers. You've inspired me to pull out some of my photos of our local farmers -- some have such similarity. Again your choice of processing really adds to the atmosphere. I have so many images already set to automatically come up in my blog but I definitely will pull a few of my farmer and cowboy photos out and begin plugging a few in. I'll try to remember to give you a heads up when they're coming up -- these are truly wonderful photos.

I definitely like that contrast with the hats, and the dry grass. Also nice evocative pose/position. Thanks Suzanne!

Sweet shot, Suzanne ... your toning is perfect and the composition is brilliant ... such a strong sense of Americana evoked by the image!

Great capture, and I wonder what they were discussing???? Let's the mind wander, thinking of the possibilities.....

Excellent capture and composition. The sepia is, again, perfect for this image. I love the cattle in the background, keeping an eye on you and the wranglers. Excellent quote, too.
