Quizás el principal fotógrafo del vaquero estadounidense en la década de 1970 fue Bank Langmore (nacido en 1935). Desde su base de operaciones en Dallas, viajó unas 20,000 millas por el oeste de los Estados Unidos capturando vaqueros con su cámara Minolta de 35 mm. (Minolta le proporcionó cámaras gratuitas). Su trabajo fue publicado en un libro titulado The Cowboy. Como muchos fotógrafos, él era un perfeccionista, y sus instantaneas son absolutamente hermosas. Por varias razones, ha estado inactivo durante muchos años, y sus obras se han vuelto raras.
Perhaps the leading photographer of the American cowboy in the 1970s was
Bank Langmore (b. 1935). From his home base in Dallas, he traveled some
20,000 miles across the western United States capturing cowboys with
his Minolta 35mm camera. (Minolta supplied him with free cameras.) His
work was published in a book entitled The Cowboy. Like many
photographers he was a perfectionist, and his prints are absolutely
gorgeous. For various reasons he has been inactive for many years, and
his prints have become rare.
