For the Love of Horses
For the Love of Horses
This is my most favorite photo that I took this winter.
There was a small parade where we were camping and a group of horses were headed my way as I stood on the side of the road with lots of other folks watching the procession of horses and festive floats.
When it comes to photographing animals, dogs, cats, or horses. I take a lot of shots because I am looking for that one photo that stands out from the rest. When the animal is moving, the more shots the better to get that right look.
Well, this shot below was exactly was I was looking for. The two horses in front both looked at me at the same time. The are draft horse mix breeds, the one on the right front is a Belgian mix and the one on the left is a Percheron Thoroughbred mix. Beautiful horses.
But the magic comes when I crop in to see only the horses face. I just love this shot. Both horses have their ears forward, which makes for a great shot as well. I have printed this one to hang on my wall. 🙂

A wall worthy shot for sure!
Thank you very much 😊
you are so talented 💖
Thank you very much Donna. I do love photographing horses along with dogs and cats. Cats are probably the most challenging though.
You are quite welcome. Blessings!
They are beautiful horses – especially the close-up showing them looking at you. I don’t blame you for hanging it on your wall.
Thank you Linda.
They really are such beautiful animals.

Thank you very much Francine, horses are so much fun to photograph.
Love horses, love your photos!
Thank you Eddie. There is just something about horses, they can steal ones heart.
Had an Appaloosa for awhile
Nice, those are such unique horses. I raised paint horses and then got into the big draft horses.
Draft horses, OMG, they are big! That must have been something
It was, I was awe struck every time I went out to the pastures and got to work with them and take care of them.
I bet you were!
I love that last shots Sandra, it would be a nice wall decoration.
