Still life from the Bar U Ranch

The Bar U Ranch is a national historic site in southwest Alberta.  A nice drive from Calgary and a great place for photography with the clock turned back over a hundred years.

I was revisiting this photograph that I made last summer.  The door to this bunkhouse was open with all of these pieces of ranch hand gear laid out so that it seemed like one of them could walk up any moment.  Just one of many interesting scenes they have created at the ranch for visitors to see and feel how life on the western frontier was lived.
