Photo taken June 27th at Miniature Horse Show. I got a chuckle out of the "cowboys" with their little horses....seemed extraordinary to see such a "match" of "traditional looking" cowboy and the little untraditional horses. I cropped the photo, desaturated the color photo to B&W, and brightened it up a bit, adjusting contrast and sharpened a bit. Wish I could fix up the left horse's eye, but basic editing only. Oh well.

Black and white suits the subject well. Needs a little more contrast.

The miniature horses are nicely caught, but the overall composition is a bit difficult. Too bad that right background couldn't have been eliminated somehow, perhaps by moving right just a bit.

Horses?

Wow that's some small horses. I would've given it a tighter crop though.

Funny title.

I actually would have liked this photo a bunch if the black and white conversion had more pop to it.

A bit grainy and needs more contrast, but a good subject for the challenge :)

This would have been a great "Newspaper" photo - Horses Shrink! But works well for extraordinary as well! I think color would have worked better here - looks like the horses are blending into the background a bit.
