I feel for Texans this summer. Bad enough HERE but at least we get the occasional thunder storm. You and the longhorn definitely need a break. Can you take him into your pool for a refreshing swim? #9573184

Excellent silhouette of that long horn! Gorgeous colors in that sky. Well done Jeff! #9575893

frank w. degenhardt August 02, 2011

I really enjoy the pictures that you do of the long horn, find them fasinating and the horns make them so special. I love that you got the rear end view of it because it lets us see just how long them horns are. I also love that it is looking at that gorgeous golden sky and the sun. Beautiful silhouetting my friend. #9576592

Laura E. Swan August 09, 2011

I had to take a DBL take after reading Frank's comment. I thought this was one big head but did feel the horns looked smaller than usual! HA! What do I know? I'm a silly city girl after all.

Jeff HOW does your CAMERA stand the heat? I am so paraniod to let mine sit in the car or anything when it's just WARM outside....but 110? 115?

Good grief. The two of you must stick VERY close together. From A/C to A/C.

Please stay well and hydrated.

-Laura :) #9593694

Jeff Robinson August 10, 2011
