Many thanks Andre- I'm not always for sharp images either- too hard for me to get! But can't resist teasing a horse!

Hi Mary,
I'm not one for liking extremely sharp images, but I have to admit, it sure works well in this instance! Great reflection in the eye too.

Mary, I like your take on horses. I like this one too. Slightly angling your camera so his eyes were a little more in-line with the right bottom corner would've made the composition a little more dramatic.
Thanks for your comments on my photos.
I will be back to see more of your horses.

Hi dear Mary.. Well I totally disagree with you in this matter for two reasons:
1- Taking good pictures isn't that difficult you just need to love taking photos and lookin at them, then every thing will become easy. ( I'm sure you love taking photos or you wouldn't have been here!!!!)
2- Your a good photographer BEALIVE ME.. and I like most of your work if not I wouldn't have cheked your shots all the time, and I bealive you've got some great artistic work in your portfolio.
My best regards,
aLi

I'm glad you like it, it only takes a few minutes so that's no problem at all. If you wanna have another one framed, send it with your wishes and I'm framing it, it's really not a problem. The program does al the work, I'm only telling it what to do.
It's great to hear you've printed it and put it on your wall, but is the quality good enough, I had to made it smaller before posting.
All the best,
Klaas

Fabulous close up Mary, the details are just stunning as are the textures. I can make out the landscape in the reflection and the clouds in the sky, but of the photographer no clear sign of at all. I think, with thought, you could take a great self portrait in this horse's eye....think about it. Over the years, on and off, I have driven myself mad as to what kind of details some animals/creatures see with the placement of their eyes. If I had an eye on either side of my head how on earth could I type all this rubbish; one eye would give me a view out the window the other could look at television but my computer screen would have disappeared:):):) My very best wishes to you sweet Mary, as always.......Ray
