Good morning Peeps

Another capture from the steam and shire rally this morning. These two lovely shires looked stunning in their harness and show attire. I did consider using this shot for the partial desat theme last week as the red and blue ribbons would stand out well. I changed my mind though as there is not enough contrast in their coat colours.

This image did amuse me though, look closely at the mouth of the one on the left, he seems to be talking and the horse on the right has a really cute goaty beard :-)

I hope you all had a great weekend. I am staying at my dads for a few days and we went out to the local castle yesterday so look out for a castle series coming soon lol

Another shot of these two coming tomorrow and then I am moving on to something new.

TTFN and thanks for taking the time to view my image.

kind regards Helen

Nice POV - either you got down low or they're very tall horses!! Hard light to work in with the brightness of the sky and the dark coats of the horses - but well managed here..
Cheers

A nice title with a humorous input and a nice double horsy portrait.

Yes, I can see these 2 nags chatting together. No doubt talking about your camera or the latest fashion in hats!!
Good shot Helen. The angle is good, and so is the sharpness and colourful details.
Well done
Janice

Hi Helen,
I really like the Smurfd eye view that you have used i=on these pictures, it really gives the sence of size that these horses deserve, good colours and details, yep they do look like they are having a quiet chat.
Well done
Regards Andy

Hi, Helen -
Great capture of these "twins." Love the spray of color from the ribbons in their manes. Your POV is at just the right angle to show of the nobility of these fine horses. Well done.
