Sunday Stills: Go High...Go Low
Here are my pics for Sunday Stills for this week. These are not the angles I normally take horse pictures from and my equine subjects were NOT impressed with me shooting something new either. I got all kinds of flack. Dare didn't want to hold still and Legs was just plain bored with my presence in his stall.
The top pic is from my archives. These are my twin foals, Trouble and Surprise. As you might have guessed Trouble is the one chewing on my shoe, Surprise is soaking up all the adoration she believes she deserves.
Dares says "No, mom, I'm not going to hold my head anywhere you can photograph it. I've more important things on my mind. So let go, cause it's not gonna work!"
It was not the time of day that caused this gray sky through the tree.....it's good old Washington weather.
Legs says, "Boring! If you can't come up with something more exciting like girls, maybe, don't expect me to look your direction."
"Come on, now, you're interferring with my breakfast........and yes, the best hay is right up next to the wall."
This last picture is the same pond that I pictured last week. It's funny how between the weather and the angle you wouldn't even know it was the same location.
I will post later in the day with the blog carnival. So if you're looking for that post, check back this evening. I got some submission sent to me directly and some through the carnival so I'll want be sure I didn't miss anyone as I format the carnival. I'm a bit slow with that kind of stuff......so it's just not ready yet.
Thanks to all who submitted posts to the carnival.

I really like the third picture of the horse. It's an angle I have not really seen much of when viewing pictures of animals.
ReplyDeleteLove that first pic....great perspective for this week's challenge! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice, I always heard horses were fickle animals.
ReplyDeleteThat top shot is great, MiKael! Very well done.

WOW! I love the first one of your twin foals, that is so beautiful! I adore the one of your horse with its head twisted away showing the lines of it's neck. That is a great perspective.
ReplyDeleteWow...that is quite a difference in the look of the pond pic from last week. Great photos!
ReplyDeleteI love the pics! Especially of the twins! That's a great one. I can just imagine how that felt with one cuddling up and one being sassy! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteLove the one where Legs is ignoring you, and the foal pic is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI also like the first one! It looks like so much fun to be adored by a foal:)
ReplyDeleteLive the first shot. He looks so contented!
ReplyDeleteLol, I see we horsey people all have similar ideas. I planned on doing this Sunday Stills and had the same idea about the horses...and so did Tracey at Mustang Diaries by the looks of it!!! ;D Great minds eh?
ReplyDeleteI love the second one, the eye looks peaceful and looks we can close to horse's heart.
