Default Home, home on the range

Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard, a discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy or gray.

Great set, and great verse! The last one is my favorite because of the lines, the colors and the silhouettes.

Outstanding series. I love the windmill shot, but all are beautiful.

These are very nice, I like the cowboy in the 1st one, giving his horse a chance to rest. l.o.l
The windmill in the 2nd and the riders in the distance in the third.
Beautiful country and Captures.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael

Absolutely beautiful! It looks so peaceful there. Oh how I wish I was right behind you for such a wonderful ride in the mountains.

I wanted to stop, dismount and take more shots but my horse was in a hurry to catch up with her buddies.

LOL, I'll be sure to let him know that you called him a cowboy.

Nothing more peaceful than a ride in the mountains.

Deb, I saw these on your flickr and spent a long time looking at them dreamily. I love these, especially your second one. I like how all the lines drain down to the center of the photo to show off that great corral and windmill. You could tell me it was 1850 and I would believe you.
