Hi,
Just to give you some background on this wonderful animal, she's not mine :cry:, though we felt in love :o :lol: during an unespected shoot, in a nacional equidian event I unnintencionaly went to this weekend.
So, I went to a good friend's daughter aniversary party, which took place in a farm, in which, also some horse competition (barriers) was being held.
While the kids were having some fun, we went to the paddocks and saw some of the competition from there. I was carrying the 70-200, and yes, as it is a bit flashy :o, one of the participants asked if I would mind taking some shots of his horse. I said it would be OK, took some and then he asked if I was with the media there :rolleyes::lol:. I explained I wasn't and he asked me if I cared to take some more for him...
Well, to cut a long story short, I had a blast! :D
The horse, Pimenta, was a real lady and very amusing.
In the end he was ready to offer payment for the photos. I refused as the fun had been completly mine and frankly never thought I would see the day someone would want to pay me for a photo :lol:. In fact, I think I would even pay for such a good time. :cool:
But off course, I offered to give him the photos in CD. He may use them as he wants, but I suspect they will mainly be for personal use as he loves that horse.
Now at home going through the photos I think I have some good ones and I will print some in A4 to give him also.
I won't be able to share with you guys the ones in which he also appears , for several reasons, but I would greatly appreciate to have your feedback on the ones I'm posting here. (I may be able to post some more later)
Any comments are welcome, as always. ;)
Presenting the Lady, Pimenta:
(I'm the one in her eye, behind the fence ;))

And now I would like your opinion particularly on this one. She does this, flirting, and playing , just before she rolls over to scratch her body in the dirt.:lol:
As the background she choose was really not that good I thought of converting to B&W. What do you think? B&W or Colour? (I don't know why this version of the B&W for the web came out a bit smaller)
