Roundup This bronze sculpture depicts the western heritage that makes this part of Canada truly unique.
As early as the 15th century, this herding or roundup technique was used to gather livestock together so they could be counted, branded, or sold. A roundup requires specialized skills of the cowboy and his horse, as these animals are specifically trained for the task. These [cutting] horses can stop and turn faster than most horses and are trained to follow the movement of cattle.

Unveiled July 2000
The cattle roundup was at a 7000 acre ranch in the Texas Panhandle. It was truly authentic of the way things used to be done. The bulls began fighting and spooked the horse in the center.
Ahh, discovering the beauty of Idaho, a neighbor to the north. We invited ourselves to the annual roundup at the Barton Ranch just outside Carey, Idaho (population 604). Cowboys and cowgirls loaded their horse trailers and pulled on their chaps and cowboy hats before sunrise each morning for three days. They pushed 500 cows through lava rock desert (Craters of the Moon National Monument) to the green grass of the ranch. This photo was taken on day 2. Cows were rounded into corrals before the final 10 miles push to the green pastures of the ranch. This cowgirl gave the cows a wide berth from her perch atop a haystack.
Since I did not do a roundup of my 2013 builds, and I am in a roundup mood with a tiny bit of spare time - here it is.
The centrepiece is my Bloodtron SHIP from SHIPtember 2013 and the cool edit was done by the eminent Pascal (pasukaru76).
2013 was a more prolific year than 2014, for several reasons (excuses):
1) I was more SORTED in 2013.
2) Certain very addictive video games which take up late evening time had not yet come out.
3) Was concentrating less in 2013 than in 2014 on my swimming training.
4) 2014 was even busier at work than 2013.
Just excuses, I know...
2015 will be fewer but more involved and hopefully more cerebral builds. We'll see...

One morning event which is a lot of fun to see in Jackson Hole, WY (USA) is the wranglers rounding up the horses from the field on the western side of Rt 191.
I tried to do a decent pan when they took off to create the sense of motion while they're in focus for the most part...it takes a little practice.
The roundup is not a definite time each day, it all depends on where the horses are. And when they're in the vicinity of the gate on the west side of Rt 191, you may want to be in place no later than, say, 15 minutes before sunrise. This way you can see the wranglers ride out from Triangle-X Ranch and head over to the western field and start to bring 'em in ! It's a load of fun to see.
Believe me...these guys are one with their horses !

Strobist: I had a Glow 25" collapsible beauty dish just above the camera lens with a 65" white Godox umbrella with diffusion to the right maybe 2 stops down. I added the tooth sparkle in Boris Effects Optics.
Celebrating the first day of spring on this #FrontierFriday with photos from last year's Springtime Roundup at Big Thunder Ranch.
From grandparents to grandkids (the boy in the back right is 8 years old), this family works together to heard their cattle out of the San Juan Mountains north of Pagosa Springs, Colorado in September. We went out to take pictures of the foliage and got a bonus when we ran into this family herding their cattle out of the high country. The yellow dots in the picture are Aspen leaves falling.
The only terrestrial hunted animal in the country that is systematically mistreated, stressed, and tortured before being killed. And all under a carnival-like, money making juggernaut enterprise.
Sweetwater, Texas Rattlesnake Roundup
I was lucky this roundup & caught cowboys actually herding the cattle.
I wanted to capture some fall colors along with the cattle. I got lucky & found what I wanted

32nd Annual Bison Roundup on Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake. But it was our first viewing standing amongst people from all over the world to view.
I need to ask at the zoo how this works. Staff members opened the gate in the large field where the bison graze. The entire herd immediately went through the gate and into a narrow structure of walls. The gate was closed and the staff were free to enter the field. There was not a single straggler.
