Here’s looking at you

9 10 2023

Last week, some folks visited Disappointment Valley from Ohio and Colorado’s Front Range, respectively. It was wonderful to show them the mustangs and a little bit of what I do in this great wide wonderful yonder. For two, it was their first visit. It was the second visit for the third, but because of very damp weather last time, we didn’t have the opportunity to get into Spring Creek Basin to see the mustangs.

Not only did we get in the basin this time, we had a wonderful visit with one of the bands.

As photographers do, we ended up photographing each other with the horses in the background. I will say that he did a much better job of catching me with the horses than I did of catching *him* with the horses (mostly because I was photographing the horses, and only when I swung my lens over did I catch him looking at/photographing me!).

Probably not many readers have any idea who this person is who’s photographing these mustangs and writing the (few) words for this blog, so with gratitude to friend James, here’s me:

The second pic, of course, captures the better subjects. 🙂

What a great photo of you, TJ! Glad you posted it so everyone gets to see you too! You are such a good host on behalf of the mustangs when people come to visit – and we thank you. 😊

I much prefer staying on the viewfinder side of the camera, but I was glad to get some fun pix of me with the mustangs. 🙂

I do enjoy introducing people to the mustangs – especially those who love the horses (almost) as much as I do. 😉
