The one where all the horses are in a circle, facing out, is interesting. I wonder what the hell is going on?

They are tied up -— to a line that’s been staked in a circle. Cowboys are choosing their horses for the day.

If you close you'll see they're tied to a picket line

This group of horses comprise a remuda and they are being individually caught for the day’s use.

In the early morning hours, each rider will throw a loop and catch a horse that belongs to them. Depending upon the amount of work for the day, they may go back and get a fresh one.

The horses are in what is called a “ Remuda” man at the lower right with horse has picked out his horse to ride for a while, and the rest are kept close at hand so Cowboys can change rides every so often..As the saying goesn” The West is hell of women and horses.”
