C&Cs welcome.

Hi Chris,
A unique shot.
Not sure if I'd prefer to crop out the fields/trees but I do like it over all.
What lens did u use for this?
On board flash/SB600/800/no flash?
I'd like to see a little more light at the nostril end of his snout - with some PP I think this image will truely shine. A B&W with strong contrast may also look good too. Thanks for sharing.

It was taken with the 70-300 G on my D50 without flash. Late afternoon sun.

I'll have a bit of a play with photoshop and see what I can do with PP.

Thanks
Chris

Nice and crisp Chris. IMHO I would crop the trees.
Great clean shot.

Perhaps try a square crop?

Nice shot. I would crop the bottom as well.

Cheers

Nice shot Chris, I'm lost for words as everyone seems to think it needs cropping and that's what I usually come up with. Yeah crop it!!
What colour was the horse? Is it a palamino or maybe a grey?
I like the light from the afternoon sun.
Cheers, Mick

beautiful pic!

im actually going against the grain and i think it looks great with the trees, its gives it that bit of depth and i think it works just fine

The pony, Polly, was once a dappled grey but age has turned her entirely white.

I'll see if I can find some time tomorrow to play with some PP and cropping.

Thanks for the comments.

very nice shot there, shows that the 70-300G is certainly no slouch when in the right hands
personally, id prefer the image as is (no crop), but with a bit of PP to bring the colours to life.
