Grazing in Colorado

The form and textrue of the horse fits in nicely with the texture and color of the trees/bushes. Well seen! Cheers, J

Comments are welcome. Cheers, Sondra

Lovely shot Sondra! (Pity about the leaves across the horse's face.) I love the dappled light on the leaves and your dappled horse. Rgds Carole

Sondra, sure is a beautiful scene.....I think one thing that seems to set your photographs apart from the majority is that I believe you care about what you are viewing and it comes across in your work......Thanks for sharing......Jim

102 dalmatians? :) Beautiful specimen surrounded with a beautiful environment. Regards.

Marvellous capture, so beautiful lights and colours, nice composition.

 

Regards...

Excellently composed, great clearness.

A fantastic use of colours in this nice composition.

You seem to have a kind of Dr Doolittle ability to get these anaimals to look relaxed and natural :-) very good. It looks as though the horse has just emerged from the cover of the trees.

This is a very lovely picture, very peaceful and innocent. You must have been very close using that almost-wide angle lens with your 20D or you blew it up and discovered how crisp the focus was. Great job. Do you shoot in RAW mode?

No, William, I don't shoot in raw mode.

Sondra, Very glad to see you back, I expect you are still in the hospital using a laptop or did they give you a driveby knee replacement? Just joking, hope you are getting along well.....Please don't answer until you really feel like it.....All the best......Jim

Jim, I stayed 2 days in the hospital. Came home on Thursday using a walker. I live in a 2 story house, so I come down each morning and go back in the evening. Feel pretty good, not much pain. The knee is already bending to 110 degrees. I use a machine up to 6 hours a day that bends my knee slowly and pauses at the top and bottom when it is straight or fully bent. Tight stockings and stitches are the bummer right now. Stitches will come out on the 26th. All in all considering I just had major surgery I am doing very well. Thanks for asking. Sondra

Good to hear your recovery is progressing well. You may have to stick to studio still lifes for a while, eh? ;-)

Sondra, I was telling Tony Georgiadis about your knee replacement, he ask me to tell you that he wishes you well and a speedy recovery.......Kindest regards.......Jim

I just love the colors here Sondra, just beautiful.

Kind Regards Andrea
