"Bighorn males, called rams, are famous for their large, curled horns. These impressive growths are a symbol of status and a weapon used in epic battles across the Rocky Mountains. Fighting for dominance or mating rights, males face each other, rear up on their hind legs, and hurl themselves at each other in charges of some 20 miles (32 kilometers) an hour. The resounding clash of horns can be heard echoing through the mountains as the confrontation is repeated—sometimes for many hours—until one ram submits and walks away. The animal's thick, bony skull usually prevents serious injury. A Rocky Mountain bighorn ram's horns can weigh 30 pounds—more than all the bones in his body combined."

These goats were at the summit of Logan Pass in Glacier National Park. This was shot last fall - since I haven't been out to shoot, I'm marching through the archives. ;) However, be it known...I will return to Glacier National Park at some point in the future. And if you've not been there - just go. :)

Just north of Broken Bow, OK, sedimentary rock has been thrust upward due to an ancient collision of the North American and South American Plates, forming what is now the Ouachita Mountains.
Evidence of what is called the Ouachita orogeny can be seen all over the park, where some layers of rock can be seen tilted up at angles of about sixty-degrees.
These geologic features can be easily viewed around Broken Bow Lake and Mountain Fork River, where erosion has left much of the rock exposed.

Label inside reads “Manufactured / by / William McCracken / No’s 45 & 47 Royal St. / New Orleans”.
McCracken, an Irish immigrant, first set up a shop in New Orleans in 1838. Along with Francois Seignouret, Prudent Mallard, and Joseph W. Meeks, he became one of the premier purveyors of furniture in New Orleans in the middle part of the 19th century. McCracken also had shops in various New Orleans locations with his brother James. According to Stephen Harrison, “By the 1850s the McCrackens were a major force in the city’s furniture business with three shop fronts on Royal Street and a small manufactory in the Faubourg Tremé” (Magazine Antiques, May 1997).

McCracken's Rest, South Island, New Zealand.
Als einer der Vertreter des „West Coast Minimalism“ hat er seine Gemälde und Objekte als eine eher verspielte Variante des Minimalismus angelegt. Auffallend ist die Reduzierung auf monochrome, jedoch leuchtend-spiegelnde Farben und einfache geometrische, dabei oft überlebensgroße bis monumentale Formen. Die Arbeiten stellt er aus so diversen Materialien wie Kunstharz, Fiberglas oder Sperrholz her. Die Konzentration von intensiver, jedoch nicht aufdringlicher Lackfarbe bei Skulpturen wie dem quaderförmigen Song (2004) in Pink ist es auch, die seinen konzentrisch aufgebauten Mandala-Acrylgemälden (Aue-Pavillon) aus den frühen 1970er Jahren ihre spezifische Wirkung verleiht.
