Description
Riding the Fire Line by Lynn Sprowl
Photo taken in the Flint Hills of Kansas. The cowboys at this burn worked very hard the entire day. Horse and riders patrolled the burn continuously. The burns were also started by the cowboys. A tire was dragged, filled with some kind of accelerant, to actually start the fires. An amazing process...
The tallgrass prairie biome depends on prairie fires, a form of wildfire, for its survival and renewal. Tree seedlings and intrusive alien species without fire tolerance are eliminated by periodic fires. Such fires may either be set by humans (for example, Native Americans used fires to drive bison and improve hunting, travel, and visibility) or started naturally by lightning. Researchers' attempts to re-establish small sections of tallgrass prairie in arboretum fashion were unsuccessful until they began to use controlled burns

It's not the usual static horse shot. The bit of action and movement really helps.
