the horse seems to pop out, pretty darn good.
I'd also consider cropping a bit off the left for a little bit tighter shot.

Although I am no pro, (not even a good amateur lol) anyone can see that you truly have a natural ability and a very good eye. You mentioned in a reply to me in another post that 90% of your efforts go in the bin. I think the difference with you and some so called pro's is that they wouldn't admit to that, and certainly wouldn't show them particular shots.

Another point is where I tend to go way over the top in PS CS2 and always appear to overcorrect, you seem to have mastered this also.

If you can turn out similar material to what you have put on your posts so far, I really think that you should be looking towards selling your work. I would certainly put a watermark on your future pics when you post them. Once again well done, your efforts are top notch and very inspiring.

Steve

Wonderful color on the horse. Nice composition, too. I'll bet there are plenty of bad angles this animal could have taken to the sun. This one is right on the money.

Very nice picture. It shows tranquility. I like how it is, but if it was cropped tighter on the left, it would remove the other houses and make it look more like in the middle of nowhere on a vast estate. Very warm coloring with the setting sun. It looks like a peaceful end to a beautiful day. Very nice, indeed.

Also, it's nice to have an easy-going horse to let you get down in front of it and continue grazing rather than investigating what you are doing.
