Goin my way?
I get a kick out of George our Jack Russel hearding the horses around.

I just barely made it past that grouchy old mare now you! Cripes!
The little hackney mare on the right is terribly intimidated by the huge mare on the left and then George the little Jack Russel thinks it's time to herd something.

Max morning
Interesting effect of edge of the mist in the pasture behind Max with forground in sharp focus and then the early sunrise reflecting off his side. Just unusual all around.

A Dixie morning...beauty everywhere!
I just liked the way the sun was glinting off her mane and all the nice contrasty colors of the early morning sun.

Dixie
Dixie lived life so beautifully...we lost our beloved baby July 07,2008
Words cannot express young lives leaving us before we expect. Dixie would have had her first birthday this month.

Profile of Royal Lady Abigail ( before she combed her hair)
Such a beautiful morning here at the Oberland..that low golden sun was playing across the horses and once in awhile we get one like this. As shot except for cropping. I don't know but you might have to be a horse lover to really like this one.

Walking on air
If you look close...there is nothing touching the ground on this horse. Max is 16.2 hands and about 1,100 pounds and he walks on air. 16.2 hands is 66 inches measured at the flat on top of the "withers" or the top of his shoulders.

I really wanna get back to my buddies .JPG
"Dunny" really wanted to get back to the pasture where his buddies were. He tires quickly of trying to "look good for the camera" This is one great trail horse. He is a full blood Tennessee Walking Horse about 8 years old.

I wonder how I'm going to like this new neighborhood....
Abi's off to the trainer...I think she might not let us have her back! Seems to like her a lot.

I thought you went in there for my food .JPG
I usually just go in an get her food and bring it out. I left the door open a little and just waited to see if she would come look to see if I was going to get her food or not. Sure enough in a couple of minutes she stuck her head in the door and the dim bulb lit her face from the side. I like the effect even if the picture came out a little grainy. I've got to work on that.

Power and grace
While I was running to get in position for this shot I bumped one of my dials an it changed my exposure to a slower setting and the pic came out way over exposed. I pulled it back to here in Photoshop elements and it came up with sort of a neat effect. All by accident.
