“I’ve Always Been a Cowboy in My Heart” by Photographer Sandy Carson

Originally from Scotland, photographer Sandy Carson relocated to Texas in the 90’s and has now spent more than half of his life there. His 12-year project, “I’ve Always Been a Cowboy in My Heart”—recently published as a photo book by Yoffy Press— follows the theme of the “great American road trip”, seen through the eyes of a Scotsman.

As his statement describes, the series chronicles his “fascination with everyday occurrences in the social landscape and explores the spaces between clarity and imperfection, composing a personal slice of America.”
