Default One brave horse, ummm, maybe not

I should have waited to show these like this after they were "fixed" and put in sequential order......but that's then and now we'll show these correctly before closing the horse silhouette chapter.

One brave horse looking straight at me while the two chickens bolt for the barn

alert trio

Just a second later, and unfortunately for me, the last horse decides to be right behind our sentry

one brave horse

An isolated crop......just because....... I am a law abiding citizen of Cropodopolis

heading home

The last shot.... our sentry heads for the darkest area up and over the hill out of sight and leaves me in the dark......and so my playtime comes to an end

up the hill

Another beautiful set, Patrick. You really have gotten some spectacular pics from these guys! Drop off a bushel of carrots or apples for me next time you see them!!

BTW...thanks for the Cropodopolis plug!! We gotta go on a membership drive!! Maybe that'll be my next thread!

Nice sihouette captures thanks for sharing, for some reason horse's never sit or stand still when there is a camera involved thanks for sharing.

These are magnificent silhouette shots Patrick. The horse on the right looks like its standing on top of the other horse.
