Here is a photo of the rancher whose horse I showed yesterday. As we drove up to the ranch, he happened to be out front doing some repairs to the barbed wire fence. He has a weathered look, and a very comfortable pose. I also like that he keeps things tied around his waist with a rope.Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site. This week we return to Chicago to show some photos of the public art and classic architecture of a great city.
What a wonderful photo, Dave. I would love to have a close-up of his face. I'll bet it is really weathered.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photo...it tells at least part of the man's story very well...he works hard, he's not wealthy (the rope "belt") but he's not unhappy, either (smile)!
ReplyDeleteHe looks happy to see you!
ReplyDeleteKate,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment. I also wanted a closer photo of him, and without wanting to give away too much, I recommend that you check back on Nov. 1, as yesterday I loaded up more photos from this series.
Yay I was right about what he was doing!! Hope Julie enjoyed the roses you got for her arrival home Dave!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good thing he is such a friendly guy and didn't mind getting his picture taken because he seems to have a very big knife!
ReplyDeleteHe is posing for the picture, very nice.
ReplyDeleteHe seems very relaxed and comfortable in his life, maybe even happy.
ReplyDeleteLove it. That's Costa Rican rural life. In all our travels, Carolyn and I think there us a three-way tie for the sweetest people in the world among the Costa Ricans, the Irish and the Nepalese.
