Love the first one. Much more emotionally appealing. Isn't that what it's all about?

This week's storm brought a lot of ice and mush but not much snow.

Who's Paul????

Thanks so much. I appreciate your comments.

I was in Heaven at this place. However, I was also overwhelmed by the photo opportunity. I decided to focus on broken glass. Here's a couple of my favorites.

Thanks so much for your kind comments!

I was captivated by the dust my neighbor was stirring up as he harvested soybeans. Of course, the dust was unruly and I was forced to chase the combine back and forth to get the dust just right. 1.5 hr. and over 300 photos. I admit to obsessing over some things.

Thanks so much!

Thanks. I appreciate you comments.

Thanks. Yes, it was the tail swish that made me select this one to process.

Thanks.

..and she is an older, not so perfect specimen!

Thanks!

Photographing Assateague ponies has frustrated me over the years. Most of them are not particularly photogenic and when you see them on the beach they are typically walking around eating grass ignoring most everything. Of course I am not going to add any kind of distraction for the sake of a better photo!
This opportunity, a week ago, was different!
This older mare was apart from the rest of the group and only intermittently putting her head down to eat grass. I turned the photo into B&W and added a bit of glow (Topaz Studio). I think she looks pretty elegant. Do you?
