This is one of my favourite Cowboy shots. He was waiting his turn to get into the gate from which he would burst in pursuit of a calf.

Shot on Ilford FP4. July, 1975

A Moment in Photographic History::
William Notman was born in Paisley, Scotland on March 8, 1826. At the age of 30, Notman moved to Montreal, Quebec and set up an extremely successful photographic studio in 1856. Click the link and check some of his Photoshop work.

A Photographic Quote of Note:

In my view you cannot claim to have seen something until you have photographed it.
