This awas out of a portrait session. The woman adores her horse. I love the freedom of her expression, and I like how the tree limb diagnal echos that of the horse's head. The portrait itself was pretty straightforward, minor color adjustment. Fast shutter.

Congrats on your POTD!!!! I have to ask, what category did you enter this in, People or Animals? Whichever it was, I'd re-submit it in the other just for good measure! :) #2283955Mary N C. Taitt January 13, 2006 0
Congratulations! Mary :-) #2284024Melanie Snowhite January 13, 2006 0
marty you asked a very good question. I never know if I should enter it in people or animal. I think I entered it in people but it didn't do anything there. Are you allowed to put it in two catagories? I've entered several in animal this time with people in them. #2284100Vicki L. Filippin January 13, 2006 0
WTG, Melanie! This is absolutely FABulous. Gosh, I don't want to be repetitive, the comp itself is stunning, but the emotion...WOW, the emotion! Smiles, Smiles, SMILES! I bet she loved this as much as we all do. Congrats on such a well deserved POTD! I'm certain we'll be seing THIS one in the next round! :-) #2284219Amy JACKSON January 13, 2006 0

Congratulations, Melanie. It is a very nice portrait. It may be a strange observation, but I think the woman's skin tones and the horse's coloring compliment each other.Nice job,
