 I know I am probably running a bad risk posting two photos so similar but when the Morning challenge came up this sort of shot came immediately to mind, something that I see every morning when I go to the barn to feed. Then the lighting challenge came up and I couldnt resist entering this one too.

I had just joined this site and this was one of the first challenges I rated. I love this picture...the lighting is so natural and fantastic. I truely aspire to create a photo as perfect as this. Be proud of your ability to capture nature as it is intended to be photographed.

this is a superb photo, very simple and elegant, perfect focus, the dark used as a frame. Beautiful! And I'm not a horse lover.

Ohmygoodness! This is exquisite! No. . you shouldn't feel bad about entering 2 so similar! Both of your morning and lighting photos definitely need to be shared with all of us! I'm glad they both finished so strongly!
