Thank you very much. I knew about the Argentina cowboys called Guachos, and about the bolos they swing around and throw, but didn't know how many in North America knew about them. They look great.

The life of the Gauchos was required reading when I was in the sixth grade. I found it fascinating.

The last one captures the power of the steed while the first one captures the character of the man.
They are all wonderful.

These are absolutely fantastic, #1 has captured the Gaucho' inner soul as well as his character, Outstanding. #4 Has the horse's spirit as he fights for its freedom just jumping out of the page at you.

Nina, tremendously beautiful composition and lighting, great B&W. I would love to see more of these if you have them.

Fantastic shots. The last one is perfect.

They are all wonderful.

They had different grades way back then? :p

Those are all absolutely fantastic!

#4 really takes the cake.. very very nice.. with a bit more contrast, I think #4 should be framed and seen by many.
