These are wonderfully done. My favorites are the horses, especially the grey. They remind me of a western movie where the cowboys are trying to catch a majestic wild horse.
Thanks, Cooke! Is that a Jag? I owned an XKE for years.
Sally, I love that 1st Horse image....it just gets my attention. It is a gorgeous Horse. For me, getting the shot is always my first priority. I leave my ISO to auto and take my chances with shutter & or aperture and concentrate on focus. Nice job
Hi Blair. I normally shoot aperture preferred and then-up the ISO as needed to maintain decent shutter speed. I typically never would have used this high ISO but it actually worked. And I often try to shoot wide open to get a shallow depth of field. This time I moved it down a bit and found it actually worked better. Thanks for your feed back.I really appreciate it.
Your wild horse images are fantastic. I live in the Seattle and would love to get over to the Yakima area to look for the horses. Any suggestions on areas to get to.
Of course this all is dependent on getting past the pandemic risks.
It’s a bit tough to say but if you come over, drive south through the lower valley toward Goldendale. Once you’re in the canyon, watch the ridges and hillsides as well as along the river. My husband drives for me so I can scout continuously. Once you get to where the pine trees start getting thick, turn around and start back. You just never know if you’ll get lucky or not. It’s all reservation land so there’s no access other than highway 97. Good luck!
I think the blossoms are a tad under exposed. On the other hand, the horses are beautiful - #3 tops my favorite list.
After looking king at them again, I agree with you on the blossoms . . .they're a tad too dark for cherries. Thanks for your feedback and compliment on the horses.
