Branding 2014

 However you may feel about the process, branding is a way of life on the ranches of the west. Many modern operations use squeeze chutes which tend to be more efficient and less labor intensive. There are still quite a few spreads however, that do things the old fashioned way. And cowboys on horseback roping calves certainly make for better photographs.






I missed the big event at Buster's place earlier this year. But I was lucky enough to be invited to take some shots at the follow up branding last week.
 I ended up with about 3 dozen photographs that I will turn into a DVD for those who helped out. These are just a few of my favorites.
