Re: Coloured Yearling.

Love them both - but especially the first - wouldn't look out of place in a Dorling Kindersley book!

Well done!

Re: Coloured Yearling.

It has to be a "clean legged" coloured Horse for me Phil, the gypsy cob types make me heave!! In the US, their coloured or "painted" Horses are just wonderful, we dont seem to be able to get the same markings here.

Re: Coloured Yearling.

Beautiful horse well shot Dawn. The horse is lovely, well I think it is but am apt to judge horses as if they were dogs. Can see you must have had a problem with the light and think your efforts particularly the head shot are remarkable, any more light and you would have lost all detail, well done, I would have lost patience.
