Re: I can't decide which one

Love them! <3 Love Black Beauty - he's just gorgeous <3

Think number 5 of Charlie (and after that number 1) would sell to me if I was looking at an adoption site. I think number 5 is the best in terms of colour, highlights and sharpness.

Re: I can't decide which one

I like the Charlie1 picture the best, the only slight niggle is the white sky but that can't always be helped.

Re: I can't decide which one

Interesting task - love to hear more about the rescue one day....

Can't vouch for horses but rescue photographs are a funny one as it depends very much on your tactic - do you want the animals looking their best for prospective owners or do you want the shots to convey 'in need' of rescue ?

Photography wise - (of the Charlie's) Number 5 gets my vote - composition works well and the colour on the coat is much richer.

Blaze & Quincey are an impressive duo although the image is a little soft. What are they ?

Mr Patch - where do I get the forms !

Black Beauty - again very impressive looking perhaps lacking a little contrast ?

Jo - cows have the most expressive eyes - I'm sure we used to hace a cow group on here lol

Quincey - Again a bit soft perhaps but what a lovely looking horse.

Re: I can't decide which one

No1 or 5, hope he finds a special home soon, he's a beauty . Blaze and Quincey are just gorgeous

I do some shots for a dog shelter, and I love it, it's sad, rewarding and fun, all at the same time

Re: I can't decide which one

I don't usually comment in the animal threads and tend not to look through them as I have no idea how to photograph animals myself. However, just to say I thought the pictures looked fine, but more to the point, what a great project to be involved in and how nice to be 'the official photographer'! Great!
