We've been very busy branding the last month and a half. I take my camera every branding and take hundreds of pictures. I very easily have 1,000 pictures saved on my computer of just brandings, and I've only had the computer 1 year now!
I started to notice last spring that a lot of my branding pictures look pretty much the same. There is some variation, maybe one of the cowboys got a new hat, or is riding a different horse, but otherwise they looked a lot a like.
These last few brandings I have been looking for something different that catches the eye. Trying different angles, and looking at ropers, horses, and calves differently, trying to get a different perspective.
These are just a few of the pictures I took yesterday. I am really happy with how they turned out. I spent a lot of time squatting in the dirt and trying to be just enough in the way to get a good picture, but far enough out of the way to not get ran over! That is in between branding every calf that was on the ground. Because I do do some work on the ground too, not just rope! =)
This is definitely my favorite picture from yesterday!
Nice frame on the last one. -SW
