This very nice man was kind enough to stop in the middle of the Hwy and let me get his picture. He explained that they are 3 year old horses and he was taking them out to get them acclimated to traffic. He didn't seem to mind at all that some crazy woman wanted him to stop and model. Very nice folks!

So much space behind them yet they're squished up against the frame on the left. Would have liked a slightly different crop to this one. Still, a fun shot! :)

the horses are beautiful, but another angle without the pavement would have been more dramatic

Really like this shot. The color and focus are great. Only thing that bothers me is the tight crop on the left side.

only in the country! The only thing I would maybe like to see but it would take a bit away also, would to pan to the left a bit bringint the horses more into the center, showing more of the road in the front. You would however see less of the "vehicle" which is in itself interesting.

Nice capture. I would have scored it higher if the horses had more 'looking room' to the left of frame.
