Photographing the Wild West
The other highlight of my weekend at The Bulldazzle in Havre was this bull fighter. This was the first time I got to watch my boyfriend fight bulls. I was so impressed at how these two guys work together and help the riders. I of course got nervous a couple times too and I of... Continue Reading →
Each night at the Bulldazzle EPB in Havre they would have these cute little cowboys gear up and hop on some bulls. Now they weren't just any bulls, they were mini bulls.

A typical sight to see around Montana. This was taken in September and the mountains were already covered with snow making for a beautiful picture, along with the many models I had. I will never get tired of seeing these amazing views; cowboys, cattle and mountains.
