Like the tones in this b&w Cindy. Did you post this some time ago in the color version? I think so - can't decide which one is my favorite, the b&w gives this a different mood - great
work! :) #2704860

Cindy...you portray the horses so well that there is always a message in the way you present them.....Do whisperer come to mind?????

Jill Odice level-classic April 30, 2006

I agree with Ray, I was just thinking that I really enjoy your wonderful horse images! Magic :-) #2709628

Cindy Paquette April 30, 2006

Thank you all so very, very much.

Ray, Stephen, Jill: I honestly think the horses respond the way they do because I talk to them in baby talk believe it or not with a high pitchy baby voice. They seem to love it! I also have to take time to get to know them and they me! I also bring lots of carrots. Horses are so beautiful; you all know how I feel about them..majestic, soulful. Maybe it's what I see in them myself that gets caught in the lens and the final product. That I would believe! Thanks for loving them as much as me! :-)

SUPERB image, Cindy! I absolutely love the tones and composition of this shot! And I agree; you have a very magic way with horses judging by the way you capture them on film! (OOPS, not film -- but you know what I mean!) Excellent! #3055054

Hi Cindy my first time here and I'm
loving it! I love horses also. You
have so much in this B/W image!!
This horse looks to have a gentle
spirit, and you have given a beautiful
softness to him. The whole image
is wonderful, very unique!!

Hi Cindy - I love B&W photos. This is so cool with the horse looking at you like that. Puts a little more emotion into this rural scene. Very cool. #5678335
