This horse indeed looks great with the mane in both dark and blond. Must be very special for this kind of horse. Topaz glow works really well, but I also like very much the texture effects you have added. The horse is also standing out really well from the lovely background.

Then your photo is of course also nice and sharp and it is such fine details to be seen, and especially in the mane. I also think the exposure is perfect.

I also like the way you have cropped the photo and the placement of the horse within the frame. A truly beautiful and well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF.

You are more than welcome.

A very handsome boy, permed mane and cool brush over.

Your handling of filters is superb (as always I learn something from you, thank you). I like the sparkle for it gives this a special touch of fantasy, the texture is well seen. ..excellent camera techs. I would not have minded just a touch more breathing room up top.

Vignette is appropriate and subtle.

Always a pleasure to find your work Eileen.

Comment from Kathy Schipper Art
Stunning. I like your choice of background against the horses coloring. I notice the relaxed ears, not to be mistaken with ears pinned back which display an aggravated animal. Such a beautiful subject. I wish I could see the horse's eye which would enhance the relaxed nature, but the long mane and forelock are part of the elegance of this breathtaking horse. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Very nice work.

That's a really good looking work of Equine Portraiture,Eileen!
Is this one of those 'Frisian' horses like the ones that Nancy Tubbs used to post pictures of?
It certainly presents us with a very enjoyable image to view!
'Good Show'! : )
