What you doing with that camera

Uploaded: May 08, 2010

Description

I spotted this "spotted" horse half standing behind a tree on the side of a bush lane just out of town & had to go back & get a few pictures. I had never seen one with markings like this before. Lens aperture F/3.2, shutter speed 1/128sec, focal length 25mm, ISO 50.

Thank you both. It could be a Painted Horse, as it sure looked painted. I'll put a full picture on tomorrow for you to see. #8597973

Thanks John, I wish I could have got in closer but didn't want to chance getting stuck in the drain. #8599474

Ohhhh! Okay. I am arriving at THIS image second. I see this is unusual for YOU GUYS, too. Well I bet Sherran is correct. A "Painted Horse"...Love that eye glaring at you! Perfect title! HA!

Hope you had a great weekend, Chris!
