Highlighting ~ Lower Blue Ranches!

John Fielder is in the middle of a 2-year project to photograph the landscape of 50 working Colorado ranches. In partnership with the Colorado land trust community a large format book will be published in September 2009 with the hope that the project will influence protection of the state’s remaining ranches with conservation easements.
