Oh I do like a good chukka....
Good call with the ball and shadow edit I think it makes the shot far more interesting than it would have been if we had to do a
spot the ball competition.
For me what I like best here is the way we can see the well defined muscles on the pony's' hind quarters and the you've captured all four legs off the ground.
Great work

It is so funny that the workmen have made no attempt to remove the remains from the cable.
In the UK it would most likely be due to the wood cutting people not being part of the removing wood from cables dept lol

As a child we would come across this situation quite frequently with pheasnts and my father would drive at them in the hope of getting a meal out of it lol
He seems to be quite relaxed and not at all fearful of you eh, nice capture

I also agree with the comments regarding a tripod.
I would be tempted to try using a tripod or propping the camera if you don't have one and drop the ISO as low as it will go, 200 I think for a D60 and then go for a long exposure.
The only issue here of course is that if you are outside the wind may move the subject during the exposure.

Another alternative may be to stop right down, set the camera on timer for say a 3s exposure and then use a torch or flash gun and paint the subject.
I quite like playing around with these things just to see what affect you can create.
I would be interested to see the results

OMG this is really odd and funny at the same time.
It reminds me of that old Billy Joel song "Face of the Stranger"

This is my favourite of your latest set as it's not an obvious shot and as a result it immediately interests me.
The crop is strange but it still seems to work the choice of B&W is perfect and the focus is outstanding, nice work
