A very well caught action shot of these two horses during their routine. I like what you have done with the background, it works very well. Excellent composition,, focus and light.

Comment from Zilyram


The post production work you have done creating the new background has worked extremely well Eileen. The eye is immediately drawn to the main subject the horses which are beautiful painted coloring. They look in amazing condition. Very enjoyable to view. :) Mary

    thank you for the 4+ stars. But your mark shows you would do something differently or something you do not like. Can I have some feedback please?

Although I mainly do traditional photography that does not mean I cannot appreciate something different,its another photo that almost crosses over to art,this is quite stunning and would sell in whatever form it takes ie:posters/postcards etc, sometimes I wish I could do this sort of work..briann

I do too. Gosh I'm impressed with your manipulation of Lightroom. This has a professional look and could be used on...what...any number of things, cards, calendars, etc. Yet another great pic. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, James.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Eileen, I'm giving you a 6 star for many reason. You teach through your photograph which is simply stunning how you converted it to art. I know you used that DaVinci filter that ferhoodles me completely.

The fact that the background has that brown hue of "barn" enhances this art.

It is simply stunning...I haven't been this moved by an image on FAR in a long long long time.

    wow Olga, what an unexpected pleasure! I try to do different things (some to some peoples dismay) but I want to look different than other shots and stand out more. And yes you hit the nail right on the head with the DaVinci filter. That is exactly what I did with this one.

    The fact that I moved someone on this piece is a great joy for me and I will continue with my playing around. It is a big stress reliever for me :) Thanks so much Olga for your very generous review and very kind words.

Yes, whatever you did certainly worked. The horses stand out very well without being too obvious. The central composition works well and you have definitely got a wonderful action pose here. Well done!
