Can you tell I just Love his photographic art! Lawrence uses shadows to give depth to the story within the photo.
Keep shooting Lawrence!
and of course you know I had to add my 2 cents:
Best of Show
Lawrence is a person that looks and shoots
Stories in pictures in his cowboy boots
He captures a moment or an event
Forever in time for he's quite a gent
His talent is big as his smile is wide
He's always got a camera by his side
Off to roundups or rodeos
Always a picture wherever he goes
He's rounding up cattle or a horse or two
Working hard as cowboys do
Yet up in his saddle views catch his eye
He quick draws his camera and shoots, Oh my
A rodeo clown or a barrel racer
Careful he'll shoot, he's a photo chaser
A handsome cowboy dressed in his chaps
Shutters ready and off he snaps
With eyes of an artist and cowboy hands
His camera it follows his commands
With boots and spurs and his trusty horse
He'll capture your heart with a picture of course
Keep your dreams and hold onto them high
Cowboy, keep shooting in the blink of an eye
This is only the beginning of that I know
So Congratulations on your Best of Show
with Love and Light,
Nina P.

LOVE THIS 9A! ;)
Your brother is an artist with a camera. I couldn't decide which shot I liked best but especially enjoyed the rodeo guys on the fence and the gal walking back with her head down. Also liked the flatland with the blue sky and white clouds. Thanks for stopping by at my place,... I'll be back here again!
Well done BiL!! And a very nice piece you've done as a tribute to him.
Thank you Nina for your kind and inspirational words when you stop by...they are very much appreciated.
Happy Trails~~
