wild horses
Returning from my rainy trip to the standing stone from last week’s post I spotted two horses grazing in a field with the sun setting directly behind them.
It was an irresistible scene and I wasn’t the only photographer to stop and try and capture it.
It was a very, very difficult scene to expose properly. It was getting quite dark and the setting sun made it heavily back-lit. I used a 3-stop graduated filter to retain the detail and colour in the sky while trying to not render the horse as a silhouette.
I think I got it about as “right” as I could. I just wish the horse would have looked up from his grazing. I guess he was either peckish or camera-shy!

Nothing so frustrating to a photographer than a camera shy horse! LOL I think this is a better shot than if he was looking up....just my humble opinion...... ;)
