I had been having a tough day on the CS Ranch in Cimarron, New Mexico. Getting photos had been a challenge for a variety of reasons. But as the day came to a close and storm clouds began to gather, scenes I had never imagined began to unfold. Photographer David Stoecklein once told me that bad weather creates some of the greatest photos. He was right. These horses weren’t too concerned about the thunder and strong winds. And by nightfall, everyone was happy to get a rain shower.
