Big Hello To You All,

Was going to say welcome at the introduce yourself but thought I would get stuck straight in.

Been doing photography for about 8 months when I brought a Canon 350d. Been enjoying a hell of a lot.

Thought I post this as it was taken tonight and the light was doing really well.

Please let me know what you think. I know the hair on the top of the head is distracting but didn't want to Photoshop.

Thanks and hello to you all again!

Hi Foozen - Welcome aboard!! This pic is really nice and the loose hair doesn't bother me at all. I find the harsh shadow a bit distracting, but the blade of grass in the horses mouth really tells a story and makes me wonder about that wild look in his eye...LOL

Thanks for sharing

I agree with Jackel except I kind of like the shadows.

Hey Foozen... a big welcome to you.

I find the pose amusing... however I am assuming you were going for the distortion of the shot.

I like it. As for the hair, I doubt he'd stand still enough for you to fix his "do".

Welcome... Like the shot, great lighting... I like the shadow, it looks like a one hump camel.

I love this shot. The wide angle effect really works here.
