Portrait of a horse who effected forever how I will view my relationships with horses. He was a wild stallion,5 years of age,and required a ton of patience and understanding when handling him. Once trust was established, he would treat me as family and stand over me watching everything as I lay at his feet. ( which is where I took this photo ) His name is Mi Midas Touch and he will be with me forever in my thoughts.

A moment forever captured ... lifts the spirit and calms the soul. Lovely. Horses, as dogs, are truly a gift from heaven.

Captured this photo at a barrel racing event which I covered. Manage quite a number of good shots but really loved the way the muscle rippled on this

A barrel racer caught in the action of beginning a turn around a barrel.

Sunrise on Horses

This composition is created from 2 separate photos of my Clydesdale gelding and some clouds and digitally edited to look like a painting.

A portrait of my Lippitt Morgan stallion taken from a candid shot in pasture on a winter's day.

Sea gull in flight at sunset.

Portrait shot of a Border Collie cross.

Two Morgan broodmares enjoy a lazy afternoon in the sun.

My nephew is a bit camera shy, but it made for an interesting photo all the same. :)

A frosty morning sunrise in February.

A great Blue Heron searching the falls for Salmon swimming upstream.

These clouds, while slightly menacing, where also beautiful. If anyone can identify this cloud type, I would be happy to hear from you. :)

A photo montage of one of my favorite horses...

My reflection in my Clydesdale gelding's eye. Even his shadow is captured, interesting!

View of a stunning 'parklet' off hwy 7 near Tweed, Ontario. It was a very overcast day, but it made for smooth water and perfect reflections.

Sunrise on a misty and foggy October morning. I thought the spider web was appropriate for October. ;)

Sunlight filtering through a tree on an October sunrise.
