Predator Prey

Lest you get all upset about this...
The dog with all of the teeth is really old and the sweetest dog that ever lived.
He and the horses play 'chase' with each other.
Just after this snap, the horse turned the tables and chased the dogs.
It was hilarious.

These are really great action captures.
Great work!

The horse doesn't look too happy, judging by his ears. Looks very hunted indeed, the wet looking mane adds to a sense of distress. Quite a capture. A little much effects on the foreground grass?

What an amazing capture, Lydia. Without your explanation, I would have thought that you were in the midst of some primal animal violence. The horse looks as if he's just about to give up in the face of the onslaught. I'm so glad they were only playing!

Yikes, this was terrifying until I read your calming explanation. Thanks for that! You must have been very excited to get such a dramatic shot from animals who are normally friends. It looks really well in b&w! ~Sharon

This one works well for the stated purpose. The dog does look very wolf-like. Nicely executed and the filter or whatever adds a classic feel I think. I also think the previous horse would look better in BW now that I've seen this one. -tv
