Description
The Pryor Mustangs reside on Pryor Mountains in Wyoming and Montana. The herd of about 170 horses consists of several bands of stallions with mare(s) and offspring, bachelor bands. The herd has probably lived on the mountains since at least the late 1600s. The Pryor herd is verified by DNA analysis to be descended from Colonial Spanish Horses. The herd also has a higher than normal genetic diversity and low inbreeding. They are managed by the Bureau of Land Management. Every four years there is a count. Round-ups do occur, probably about every 4 years, and some horses are adopted. At that time, some mares are also given contraceptives.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
