Scott Holcomb's photos with the keyword: Blackie's Pasture

Blackie was a swaybacked horse who, for twenty-eight years, was a well-known fixture in Tiburon, California. He not only stood in the same spot in a pasture at the corner of Tiburon Boulevard and Trestle Glen Road, rarely moving, day after day, but he faced in the same direction, becoming the local mascot of several generations. Born in Kansas, Blackie was brought to California to become a cutting horse at rodeos. After his rodeo career, he was sold to the Army and became a cavalry horse. He was retired when he was 12 years old. Rest in Peace, Blackie. This photo was taken by a Zenza Bronica S2 medium format film camera with a Nikkor-H 1:3.5 f=5 cm lens using Kodak Portra 400 film, the negative scanned by an HP Scanjet G4050 and digitally rendered with Photoshop.
