I liked it!, perhaps I'd like it better with the strawberry a litle bit closer to the upper top. (6)

I love the bubbles. I would have preferred it cropped to remove the rim of the glass, but I'll score it for all its potential. 7

I was doing some shooting at a stables near my house. The local colleges are coming back to school and one of them uses this stable for boarding a lot of show jumping horses. So, I though I might catch some nice action shots.

The day was a bit gloomy and misty (the reason for the gray skies in all the photos) so most of the horses were just hanging out..not all that active. Except for this one magnificant horse.

He was in a work out yard just dancing and acting up. I have a sucky action camera (G2) so I wasn't able to get some incredible jump shots. The owner (the man in my photo) came out to calm the horse down. The horses name is Chance and is an ex-thouroughbred race horse and he gets a bit high strung.

Well, this horse is also known for head butting people if he can get close enough. I was about..oh 20 feet away watching this struggle between the man and the horse trying to head butt him.

Finally, the man said in a stern voice "Chance..enough with the head butts!!" and glared right at the horse. Thats the shot!! That horse and that guy looked at each other for about a minute..and he calmed down. :-)
