What an attention-getter, Dave! Love the idea. Since the donkey's teeth are so dominant, I wonder if it would work to soften the horse a little, most particularly its outline. Right now it looks a little pasted-in

That must have been a juicy bit of gossip that they were sharing .

Thanks Linda !!! I thought I had soften both, but maybe not enough on the horse. You are correct, thanks for pointing that out. See if this one works, a little softer around the edges.

It seems to have been R.G. Altho, I'm not sure if it was a playful act or fighting. Thanks for your input on the conversation.

Fantastic shot! I love the b&w treatment, the soft background and overall processing. I prefer the original version, prior to softening the horse. I think it gives both animals more of an equal treatment, and equal share of the photo, as I see them both as the subject of the photo.
