Wild Horse

[John Blumenkamp]

Hi Everyone... I was able to photograph one of the wild herds of horses here in the western desert of Utah for the first time yesterday... definitely a satisfying experience, and a subject I hope to be seeing more and more of in the coming year.

Thanks for looking,

Good looking horse and excellent pose with the tail flowing Might just want more room up front to give room for horse to move in !! Sure hope I can get some of these guys at the end of year in Wyoming !! ... btw I always wanted one of these moving fast with a slow shutter speed !!

Well done. I like the trotting pose, colors and sharpness look good. Agree with Al re: just a tad more room up front if you have it. TFS

This is a real beauty John, animal and photo. The colors of the habitat and the flying mane and tail screams wide open West. What took you so long to get out and get some of these guys :)?

Really like the detail in the horse and the action. Nice color as well.

Lovely striding posture, and I like the light and sharpness. I agree more room in front would work.
