Cowgirl on Horse by Ingrid Curry

At the Cattle Ranch Photo Workshop, I got to do what cowgirls like best – ride a good horse and herd Texas Longhorn cattle. We brought a herd of longhorns down from high country and drove them though some beautiful rock formations and open rangeland. The photographers got to shoot big-horned Texas longhorn steers an arm’s length away. Plus Jim on Nick, his dependable mule, and Chris and I were models. It was great fun for us. Double Circle Ranch is one of the great American West ranches – and a big herd of Texas Longhorn steers is a scene from days gone by. It makes for great photographs.
