A Day in the Life of a Rancher….
I chose to give the perspective of a day in the life of a
rancher because I was raised around this type lifestyle and it reminds me of my
grandpa and dad. This occupation is stands out to me because majority of the
world works the normal 8-12 hrs a day getting paid for every hour that is
worked, unlike ranchers. I have first hand experience of the continuing labor
and hard work ethic these ranchers approach the beginning of every morning with
until dark and sometimes after dark every day. These ranchers don’t get paid by
the hour, they work for every penny they get regardless of the weather, the
mental& physical toll that is put on their bodies, & of life
situations. My approach is to
simply take everything that symbolizes to me what they do for a living. I have already shot many original
photos from my own area back home and plan to use one of the pasture sites as a
background for the whole 6x6. I find this country land a very beautiful and
serine place to be and find it ironic how all the hard work of a rancher can
upkeep and create something so breathtaking. I also want to display life as a
rancher first hand by include all the important iconic equipment, apparel, and
tools these ranchers use everyday from dusk til dawn. The images I could simply
not shoot a clear picture of I plan draw by hand. With skills from Photoshop I
plan to blend many images together making them look as one full setting of a
day in the life of a rancher.
