John Langmore: Open Range: America's Big-Outfit Cowboy

John Langmore began cowboying in 1975 at the age of twelve, after his father photographed the seminal book, "The Cowboy." John spent twelve summers cowboying across the West before pursuing a professional career. In 2012, after thirty years away from his time in the saddle, John began a six-year project photographing fourteen of the nation's largest and most famous ranches. Of all those who have photographed the cowboy, John is one of the few who came to it first as a cowboy and only later as a photographer. John's photographs and writings reflect this deep connection to the cowboy world and offer an unrivaled chance to witness a way of life that many dream of but few experience.
