A friend wanted some nice pics of her horse who is sadly not going to be with us much longer. They have been a partnership for many years so I wanted to get some special shots for her, I hope I achieved that.Editing
Processed in Lightroom cc. There was still some background visible so I removed that.In my camera bag

I wanted to remove a lot of the ambient light to create the silhouette effect. We were outdoors at 4pm so it was still quite bright. The settings I used are 1/100, f8, iso 100, 70mm. The flash was at full power.
