HECKLE!



This is nice, even though the horse is out of focus, the rest of the scene is sharp. Kind of a reverse motion blur. Interesting.

Always likely to get something oof when a horse is galloping, merely adds to the movement of the shot. I won't take your money here Ian, I'll wait for the short guy to stand in front the dart board and play you for the $5.00 although we'll both probably get heckled then.

Are these Percherons? They look like draft horses by the size of their hooves. The contrast of the white and black horse is great. Actually, I would this photo without the horses, too. The weathered wood on the barn is wonderful. Together, though they warrant a wow! BW and was a perfect choice.

Hey Lindy, not sure of the specific breed but they are heavy horses, this is a neat spot, raptor sanctuary, bison (somewhere?), sugar bush tours in the spring (these guys pull the big wagon .. thx!

I really like horses and I really like this picture. I have been known to give money to sick horses, of course I didn`t know they were sick before I backed them.
