Wild Horses of Assateague Island MD (Part 2)

Remind me next time I go to Assateague to bathe in Off and hang a citronella candle from my tripod's weight hook. My goodness but I am bitten. I kid you not, I have over 40 mosquito bites. Anyways! Went back to Assateague Island National Seashore in MD for a daytrip on Saturday. I skipped Chincoteague due to time restraints and because I didnt find much there last time.

I managed to find foals, horses laying on the beach, lots of paints, stallions in stand off, etc. I even found that mostly white paint stallion that I wasnt able to get a portrait of last time! If this keeps up I think Assateague might officially start to be my favorite place to photograph.

I have more than 50 photos of the wild horses on my site: www.TorvaTerra.com. I picked my fav 8 to post below.


1.) Filly on the beach. The ocean is just on the other side of the steep dune in the bg.

Thank you!

I love the paints. I didn't have much of them the first time.

Great shots - I was there in May.

Lovely shots of these majestic creatures. Would love to be amongst these for a day or two.
