Notes
Well, let's get to the main reason we were headed to the ranch. Horses. We were there for 5 days to ride. I had a great time riding although I did find it a challenge at times taking photos while on a horse.
Camera: Mamiya 645 Super camera using Rollei Retro 400 B&W film

Wow, what a creative capture. They're the most graceful creatures with such soulful eyes. We used to own two horses...big sigh...

very nice texture with the long and short horse hair. Was this one of the horses you got to ride?
It's very nice looking.

Becky: this was the horse that I rode, a pied Paint.

This is a beautiful horse! You have captured it quite elegantly. I really like that we just see his body. I hope you enjoyed the riding...I haven't been on a horse in ages..

An appealing shot with the emphasis on the horse's mane. I like the range of tones in his image too. Riding sound very good except for getting used to sitting in a saddle that much! :-)

I hadn't ridden in years, but I really wasn't that sore from the riding. I think having a quality saddle really helped. That and a calm horse. :)
