Shelter From The Storm by digitalrn

Shelter From The Storm

On my way to work this morning I spotted this beauty standing underneath this clump of trees. It had been snowing and sleeting, and it looked like the trees provided a bit of shelter from the storm. When I came to a stop along the road, she stopped and looked up at me, affording me a nice shot.
Beautiful shot!!

Nice shot. Lucky that you can stop to take photos. So often when I am driving I see something I would like to capture but no place to pull over and too much traffic.

Don't they get cold standing out there like that? I like the look of the seemingly black and white, and then the horse is a splash of color. Nice framing, too.
February 2nd, 2011  
Oh my...so beautiful. I have to ask...how do you get the trees to be B&W and the horse in color? Your pictures just amaze me!
February 2nd, 2011  
wow. i'd love to know how much of this was OOC, but nonetheless, amazing shot, i bet that guy's cold!

Beautiful - nice framing & love the tree silhouettes.
February 3rd, 2011

She adds a bit of pretty color! I always feel sorry for horses that are out in storms! I know they are ok with it and it makes their lungs strong but still.....Mine got to come in when it was this bad.
February 3rd, 2011  
Such a gorgeous animal and she stands out so beautifully against the dark tree silhouettes! Great capture and your presentation is impeccable as always! :)
February 3rd, 2011  
what a beautiful shot! I wish I went past wandering horses in the snow on my way to work :p

Breathtaking Rick,and so is the Spring IS Coming-Egypt. Exciting stuff isn't it! Who would have thought.
You love poetry and such, and Rachel has a lovely poem on her Jan. 31 365P that I thought you might enjoy.

February 7th, 2011  
What a beautiful shot!
February 25th, 2011  
Rick! You're nature shots, I personally feel, are your best subjects to shoot! Great capture all around! The repetition of the trees in the background but the variation in size makes this shot more interesting. Great subject to shoot too!
