 Taken from the road across the fence of a horse farm on Athens-Boonesboro Road. Good thing I had my 2X converterbecause She was quite a ways from the road. Ended up cropping quite a bit to get her this close.

the only problum i see with it is the grain-e-ness but from the distance you are talking about it would be hard to have it clear

Decided tilt to the left. Photo lacks punch and contrast and is obviously a handheld shot as evidenced by the blur.

I think the fence is a little distracting, but otherwise a great picture

Nice Buckskin. Your shot is a bit OOF maybe a tripod would of helped here. You did capture him looking right at you and the compostion is very nice. Kee

I might have waited for the horse to have a slightly different pose... I dont think the position it's in is all that interesting... Could be sharper too. You might also want to experiment more with different angles, other than directly from the side.

Beautiful horse. Strange coloring in the neck area - contrast/lighting/sharpness boost? - and the ground is tilted. Should be easy to correct. Love the wisp of his mane across the forehead and his prance.
