The horses are beautiful. I think you are off to a great start with your canon. I would like to have seen the rest of the mares face and ear in the third shot, seems like it was cut off. But still a wonderful shot of mom and baby.
The first one looks like it could be used for a nature magazine. Good job.

Nice set of photos here. I'm particularly fond of that first photo with morning light.

first one ligthing and composition is perfect. shot is good enough for a calendar. the other two are also quite good, agree with other poster about third shot needing whole ear. sometimes we get so focused on our subject we forget to check the viewfinder one last time before pressing the shutter release. post more of your work especially horses. :P

You are so lucky to have such great subjects nearby love the fact they are wild. Around here all the horses I see have halters on them which detracts from the beauty in my opinion

I am glad to know there is someone from close by on here too. I really like your photos of the wild horses. They are very good. I try to get decent shots of our horses in the pasture and they never turn out.

Thanks for the information. I have heard that you could see them there, but was sure how easy the access was. One of my co-workers once got stuck in the mud over night. She wasn't used to Colorado wet road though.
