About me: I live south of Missoula, Montana on the west side of the Bitterroot valley. Many of my photos are taken here in western Montana, but also around the world. I love being outdoors. I hike, bike, fish, hunt, ski and ALWAYS take photos. I use a Canon 7D and 5D Mark III (with a few lenses and tripods) and shoot in RAW. I process my photos into JPG with Adobe Lightroom with as few adjustments as possible.

Work horses in the Bitterroot

Scott and Diane have a pair of Percheron/Quarter horses that they use for various tasks on their land. On this day, they drove them as a team up to their thinning project, they worked them independently to skid small logs and trimmings. They are named Blackie and Roxie, both are mares. They are sweet, willing workers and comrades. December 2012.
The Percheron is a breed of draft horse that originated in the Huisne river valley in northern France.Usually gray or black in color, Percherons are well-muscled, and known for their intelligence and willingness to work.
