More in the land of JPG, this time processed through Lightroom 2.0, d'oh. Forgot about the tools in LR for JPGs. Twix samples the dirt in her high desert environment with mom watching for bad guys.

I like the crop to show just a hint of the horse protecting the young one who looks so fragile. I think if you had shown more of the larger one it wouldn't have worked so well.

The vulnerability of the baby and the protectiveness of the mother is very well portrayed

I gotta tell you, my girlfriend absolutely loves this shot. Thanks for putting a smile on her face.

Any chance you could choose a different crop to include more of the white horses face (if you did crop it out to begin with that is), or to crop out the white horse altogether?

Definitely one worth keeping! Love the foreleg drawn up - I take it she was pawing through the dirt to see what was there?

I like how the shapes of the horses "nest" together, and the shallow DOF helps frame the subjects well. I wish the youngster's foreleg wasn't quite so far forward -- as it is, it partly obscures the outline of the head -- but overall it makes a nice scene at once domestic and pastoral.

Twix? What a cute name for a horse! Lovely processing, love the white foot hanging midair!

Love horses, and foals are just gorgeous. Lovely pic.
