  4. I love these shots. You have definitely proven that horses make a landscape beautiful. I agree with the previous writers who liked the composition titled “Tranquility”. I thought it was brilliant. It made me gasp, simply stunning. You make each place you photograph look so special that I always want to visit immediately. Kind regards.

  10. Really great shots, Jane. Love the composition of Tranquility, the shadows of Afternoon Repast, and the beautiful soft face of the Fine Equine. I forwarded them to my brother who raises Paints.

  13. Awesome Jane! I think Bob must allow for the car to be pulled over for a photo! Jim doesn’t quite offer that as an option on most of our road trips. Lucky woman! Beautiful photos. We pass by there often, and we love it. Suzie

    • Edit, Thank you very much. That white horse was standing there, unmoving, the entire shoot. It was rather amazing. I just loved the lines in the field and the contrast of his white coat and I’m glad it caught your eye. Appreciate it!
