I have been a devoted Etsy user since 2007, but I feel the need for an official website to showcase our products. With the addition of greeting cards, wood blocks, and photos on canvas to our line, it seemed like a good time to create a website to have a beautiful on-line shop. Big Cartel provides great pre-made templates that are fully customizable. We are in the process of getting our domain name changed, but for now here is the site: http://montanaphotojournal.bigcartel.com
It seems that the chances of finding a good shot improve once my tires leave the pavement. This day was extremely warm, at the end of August, just as everyone is starting to harvest their wheat. While the tourists pack into Glacier Park and Yellowstone, both just a few hours from where I live, I have always loved finding myself alone in one of these wide open fields, as a storm rolls in and the wind picks up, swaying the wheat around me. The air is magical and energized by storms. The colors are incredible in the summer and I love to find the combinations that I haven't seen before.
I have to be honest, I'd never heard of Ranchero camera bags before. They're not really bags, so much as briefcases for a camera. The sides are rigid and stiff, and would not squish easily. The leather is soft and velvety and the inside is lined with pine tree green felt. How retro! I love it!
