Up close and personal

[Maritimer1]

Nothing like snow to make the whites on the horses not look so white. This is Markus (aka The Highlander) wondering what on Earth I'm doing invading his space. The rump arrangement of his buddies Cecial and Georgia is what caught my eye. It's almost the triangle effect that was being talked about last year.

Another lesson learned today: Keep a soft cloth at hand to wipe the melted snowflakes from the lens to avoid the splotches that I've ended up with here.

I really like this shot. Particularly the expression of the horse, with the get the hell away look. Excellent shot
