| This really is gorgeous. The lighting is just right, and I love the hint of highlight on the fence rail. Good detail in hat and mane. The dust adds a magical touch too. |

I like the darkness too, (IMO) it gives the picture a more dynamic and dramatic look.
WTG, Lydia! Huge congratulations on ribboning with this excellent image. |

Thought I had commented during the Challenge. This was the only 10 I gave. I know it is a little dark but I like it - even though convention states it should be lighter.
I think darker works in this image. Of course it is a little risky whenever we adventure away from the center. At the same time, the safe center can be boring and predictable too. |

I am very surprised that this took the blue and got a 7.1 with the image being so dark. Don't get me wrong the items in the picture are good but I think it's way too dark.
Congratulations on your first blue.

Wonderful.
Returning for a bump. I love the lighting and the dust. It's an excellent photo and as a result this gets my top vote and the YankO Blue (tied with another). Good luck!

| Sweet light! Lovely shot, too. I'm voting on my laptop which is very telling at the lighter end of things - there's a wee bit too much dodging, it appears, on the horse's mouth and chest, and perhaps just a bit on the sand where the shadow is. Not going to affect my vote (I do like this alot) because I doubt it's visible on most monitors. Just passing along in case you wish to print or display larger. |
