Sunday Stills "HORSES"

(The Sunday Stills Photos are posted on my other blog, Horses Are Our Lives. I will begin to put the Sunday Stills Photos here on this blog.)

My friend, Tammy, from Horsetrailriders.com has been following the Sunday Stills blog. I really like the shots that Tammy got this week for the Sunday Stills Horses challenge.

Each week, Ed, of Sunday Stills, issues a new photo challenge. I like that he says that it doesn’t matter what type of camera you have. Post your pictures and see the pictures that other people are sharing. Work on improving your own skills.



This year has been the beginning of a lot of journeys for me. I’m just as excited to begin my journey into horse photography. I had a camera as a kid and could only take pictures when I could save up enough money to buy film. Later, after college, I got a Yashica 35 mm and I learned to focus manually. Now, with the digital world, taking lots of pictures isn’t a problem. Editing the pictures.


Ed thinks this week is a challenge, but to all of us who own and love horses, this is exciting. I decided to try a few different shots this week. I would like to learn to take better pictures. I have always loved taking pictures, but I really want to learn to take “unique” shots.



I’m starting these challenges by taking pictures of my stud, Grand Duke of Asset, “Duke”. In the shadows of an outside pen, I thought the close-ups of his face were interesting. He was in a quiet mood today, relaxed, and I loved how his face looked.

Come along on this journey with me!
