Texas Rangeland is work that was published in a book, titled Texas Rangeland, by University of Texas Press. The series consists of 90-100 images of many of the animals that inhabit the rangeland of Texas (cattle, horses, sheep and goats). However, the Press has limited the publication to 62 photos of bulls, cows and steers. The fact that the Texas Longhorn is the University's symbol could have something to do with it. The book is available in book stores. It can also be purchased online at the UT Press web site, Photoeye, Amazon.com, and other web sites.

It is great that the UT Press responded to some of these images. Many of them are so abstract that they look like landscapes. Abstract "Cow Landscapes" as somebody said. Or maybe even aerial shots. But nevertheless, it is very satisfying that they understood and thought the work to be marketable. The book is a blend of literal and abstract. Roy Flukinger, Curator of Photography and Film at the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas, has written an introduction placing my work into the context of art and history in general. The Harry Ransom Center has one of the world's most prestigious collections of photography so it is a great honor that Roy wrote the introduction. My friend Henk Van Assen, who heads the undergraduate graphic design program at Yale, has designed the book.
