The first shot makes a very nice portrait of this horse. Good job. :D

The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it. :cool:

Nice shots, beautiful horses. Too bad the JPEG compression was sort of brutal on the last two.
I like the way you made the border color the same as the halter on each horse.

I love the first and the second shot - the second especially "talks" ... I can hear that guy say "Gimme that sweet you got ....C'mon.... I KNOW you got one ... Just one Pleeeeeze"

Just some thoughts (talking as a horse-nutter) - When a horse wears a really tatty halter take it off (if the owner gives permission of course) before taking a photograph. Can make the difference between a great portrait and a nice snapshot ! And I know it can be really hard to take photos of horses when you are in the paddock with them (apart from the fact that it may not please the owner OR be safe ....)because they might get too close being nosy .... but again the electric tape in the last two shots distracts from the horses.

Great shots, Paul. The color and composition are spot on.
Beautiful animals.

Belgians are such sweet horses! You've done a great job of capturing that with these photos.

The first shot is great, the second kinda funny. I love both.
