So beautiful. Love the sheen off of his coat and the light on this. You post processing is wonderful. #9524246Mary Beth Aiello July 12, 2011
Simply beautiful work, Lyn. The light is perfect. #9524462Lyn Darlington July 12, 2011
Thanks for your comments! #9526275Dale Hardin July 13, 2011
what a wonderful image Lyn. The position of the head, the sheen, the treatment of the background, all make for a superb rendition. Lovely.Will probably get in trouble for this but I have a suggestion. (not a critique) Place catch lights in the eyes. You'll be amazed at what a difference that will make in this beautiful shot. #9527258

Fabulous portrait of Buzz, Lyn! How can anyone resist that beautiful face. Wonderful tones, details, lighting and treatment. Deb #9527427Patricia White July 13, 2011
How did you get this horse to pose? His mane is so soft and looks so well groomed. Love how you changed the background on this with just enough lighting around his head. #9528248Phyllis A. Houghton July 14, 2011
Your editting is clean and perfect. It looks like you brought your horse to a studio. Great work. #9529892Chris Ebben July 14, 2011
This would have to be one of the best horse close-ups I've ever seen. Your editing & horse training surely compliment each other. Very well set-up, taken & presented=^..^= #9530529Lyn Darlington July 15, 2011
Thanks Dale, Debra, Patricia, Phyllis & Chris, Dale I like your idea will give it a try! #9532797Laura Greene July 20, 2011
Buzz is just so beautiful. You've created a wonderful portrait with so much warmth. I agree with Dale about the catch lights. You can see part of one on the viewer's left eye. Can you enhance that with the dodge tool? LOVE THIS.Irene Colling July 21, 2011
Lyn, you captured the best of this beautiful animal. The head tilt adds an element of interest to the portrait. #9544776Phyllis A. Houghton July 22, 2011
