The cowboy of myth and reality had his beginnings in Texas. There cattle grew wild with few natural enemies. By the end of the Civil War there were an estimated 5 million of them including the Texas Longhorn. It was then that the cowboy entered his twenty year golden age, 1866 through 1886, the era of the open range and the great cattle drives.

Thank you for visiting our site. We have been married 58 years and are long time partners in our art as well as life. Most of the beautiful floral and butterfly images are from Carol's camera while most of the rest are from David's. The making of a photographic image requires more than the click of a shutter.In the days of film photography we spent many hours in the chemical darkroom to make the negative more than just a "picture". The current digital darkroom allows far more control and artistic development for the original digital file to come to life as art.You will find in our galleries realistic presentations, simulated paintings and outright digital abstracts. We thank you very much for taking the time to look at our images.
