Default First snow and the horses are out

DSC_8155

This is just like the one above...compare the one above and the one below and notice how the two leftward horses are in sync, in lockstep.......their poses are identical

Hi Hayward!.....yes winter is here..first day of winter was here a day or two ago? I like snow and we don't get too much of it so it doesn't get too old.

Truly gorgeous images Patrick. I especially love the first, it's so simple and the contrast is stunning.

Awesome set of images Patrick. I can feel the nip in the air by just looking at these and its summer here! Merry Christmas and hope you have a happy and safe new year.

Phew, thanks for those, they were very refreshing. It's 35°C here (about 95°F I think).

I like the way you direct your models as well. Very well done on the matching poses!

All the best.
