4-Horse Carriage
 |
|
| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
One of my hobbies is carriage driving... but I drive a single pony, not this elegant 4-horse team!
This was taken at an event called a "Traditional Day of Driving". Horse drivers spend hours cleaning their harnesses, polishing brass or chrome fittings, and bathing their horses. Then they invite their friends to dress up (wearing traditional clothes)... and take a long country drive together. When everyone returns, drivers compete in a timed obstacle course, and present themselves in front of a judge.
Photo: Cropped, desaturated some of the green and brightened lighting (it was difficult to see the dark horses and carriage against the dark trees in the background), auto levels, USM, resized. |

Exellent composition. The long frame works really well.
Beautiful capture Jennifer, and a wonderful hobby. Framing, composition, colour and clarity are good.
Thanks for sharing,

An original hobby, which you captured very well, Jennifer. Excellent frame, really suits the subject. I really love the wide compo. TFS!
