The light is very harsh and makes the image look flat. If you want natural light, try to take the image closer to sun rise or sun set. It gives a softer, warmer, feel and will also give the image more depth.
horses, always graceful, i almost submitted a photo of just a horse doing dressage, just his head and neck though. The lighting in your photo is great, and I like the shadows very much. Cute horses, it would have been good to brush the one in the background for the photo at least. I like their ears.
The repetition works to add more grace to the picture. The difference in the color of the horses and halters also adds interest. There are a couple of things that you might consider improving. The nose of the horse futherest away is a little close to the outside border and the shadows are a bit distracting and they lead the eyes up to the umm.. brown patch, in the grass.
Lovely horse image very crisp, sharp etc., interesting composition and expeosure spot on but not sure that this composition shows the grace that horses have to offer.
Great subject, horses are indeed graceful animals. I like the colors and shadows you've captured in this shot.
I feel the composition of the image could be improved a bit by providing a bit more room on the left and a bit less on the right. Combine that with a bit lower camera angle (to keep the black horses ear shadows from showing) and I feel this shot could be a top 10 finisher!
I think this shot has a lot of potential here. Just some personal suggestions, I would narrow the depth of field a little bit more to make the horse in the background a little bit more blurred, I really think that would add to the effect here, also, the shadows in the lower right hand side are kind of distracting. Really, this is a good shot, just has a few minor composition errors. Good luck! ;)
I think this is a little too tightly cropped, especially in front of the horses. They kind of need a little more breathing room, especially the lead horse. Nice and sharp tho, did you get model releases from them :-)
