Amy- Went right into my favorites as this is so beautiful. Love the black and white, the whole setting of them walking on the beach is gorgeous. What beautiiful work this is with perfect lighting, love the way the black and white just emphasizes the feautures of the horses and the action of the water. I also enjoy the pov with them walking away. Another POTD, Finalist, and Grand Prize winner if I was a judge.
Amazing capture my friend.
Have a wonderful day, enjoy, do take care. #7974895
