Default My first try at Horse Photography

These are the photos from my few sessions with horses. I would appreciate any comments. Thanks.

Sorry I have been away for a few days! These are very good but the crop you are using I would put a little more room in front of the horse! The last one illustrates what I am talking to.

Also the paint in the second is a bit nervous, eyes not forward, hindquarters a bit coupled.

The colt shot is stunning!! Well framed!!

Very well done, first one has the best leg position, I'd pull the near hind in just a smidge further, like a hoofprint or so.

The second has a very nice background blur, and it helps to improve the picture, this can be done on the side shots, but you have to stand way back, and zoom way in (at least 200mm) with a aperture around f5.6 . be sure to have enough shutter speed to stop motion blur.

Thanks for the comments. I'll try the longer focal length for the side shots on my next shoot.

I'd make sure their legs were brushed better too.
Pretty horses though.
