Archive challenge. 2004, continued. V e r y slow shutter speed at 1/180th, and shallow DOF at 3.5, the filly's face in sharp focus, the rest a nice blur. It looked fine in color but the toning enhanced the soft feeling.
Well, 1/180 doesn't seem so "slow" to me, but whatever -- it certainly works well here. I like the white-on-white isolating the subject, along with the limited focus. Very nice portrait.
Nice soft image for the tiny one. Love the way the legs are everywhere. She seems to be watching your every move. The B&W conversion really works for me .
I like how the softness in the horse to the left helps to isolate the filly. The shutter speed gives a nice mix of stopping the action, while still keeping some motion blur in the feet.
Very sweet shot - I agree that the B&W gives this a soft, ethereal feeling. Interesting disconnect which I'm assuming is due to the motion - the two front hooves vary considerably in size!
