Thanks Dimitri, that's one shot I just couldn't pass up, luckly it wasn't raining as hard as it was earlier so the camera didn't get that wet, just me. :rolleyes: :lol: :lol:

very nice Sandy :cool:

maybe desaturate it slightly, as the pink is very dominant
the horses look good and the wood behind is lovely
