Stunning black and white images show a rugged and romantic piece of Americana as it clings on for survival
Breath-taking photographs have captured America's last cowboys, as the age-old profession, or art-form, all but dies out.
A national icon, and an integral part of the country's story, the cowboy is a romantic, rugged metaphor for America's frontier past -- and one that has captivated Hollywood for decades.
For years, photographer Adam Jahiel has been taking pictures of the cowboys of Nevada's Great Basin, perhaps one of the most inhospitable regions of the already harsh West.
