susan stone 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Of course I like horse pictures but this composition has some other interesting details, lots of graphic interest with all the old windbreak fence and the foreground rope. And I think that wild pony is about to escape, tells a great story. You might consider cropping down from the top a little and elimanating that bit of sky. Link to comment
tanyatruong 0 Posted September 2, 2006 Very nice photo here Kellen. The smooth blackness of the horse is such an interesting contrast to the rest of the grey. I like the symetry and the composition of the photo alot. What a nice place to visit. I know the Fall will be beautiful where you are at, i hope to see more photos of the fall. Thanks for visiting my site again. Warm regards, Tanya. Link to comment
olafdevries 0 Posted October 21, 2006 Out of my heart.., (seeing no "stories" in the photo before..) I just see what I would have watched.., being there..! I hardly ever saw a horse in such an unbelievable beautiful way.., framed by that partial "folden " fence. Where I was standing seeing this..? Behind that terrible aweful rope of course ..! haha. Call imidiately the police for a "cropping permission!" Hi Kellen, Hi young mam..,Grandpa Olaf was here. Link to comment

jan_piller 0 Posted January 17, 2007 This is one of my favorites - the rope doesn't bother me - I think it adds more depth and another element. If the rope weren't there, you would have too much foreground and somebody would point that out. And if you took away the foreground, then you wouldn't have got this same shot. This way it adds "layers". I really like it! Link to comment
olafdevries 0 Posted January 18, 2007 I was just looking in a grafic and aesthetic way of composing. It's hard to devide that from Kellens shot and her way of doing that, but that point of view was in my mind. Because of that a tried the humorous way of expressing. Trying, not to upset the photographer, for there is no reason for that. It's Kellens choise, loving it in this way and able to share her feelings with friends picking that up. Without the rope she would have gone closer, shooting the image I was seeing, by making a frame/hole of my hand. Watching.. now.., haha, I (..!) would crop the sky and the bottom untill 5 mm beneath the rope. The rope is getting stronger and the white sand in front will have gone, making the total tones and B&W ballance nicer. See my commenting just as afterwards digging for gold. Kellen did found it over there and here in Holland is somebody looking for some more. For Kellen, GOLD it is..!!! See you both! :) Olaf Link to comment
jan_piller 0 Posted January 18, 2007 Don't you just love it when you've made such a great image, people keep coming back to it to discuss it! And Olaf is right - it is GOLD!!! I hope this is hanging on your wall! Link to comment

jan_piller 0 Posted June 14, 2007 But it depends on how big you can blow them up - depends on the size of your camera. Link to comment
