Out of the Mist

After seeing riders on the beach during our stay, I convinced Jim that we should go riding, assuming the horses were dull trail horses and I could take photos while we rode. At the last minute I decided to take my little P&S instead of main camera. Thank goodness! The horses were spirited and all my shots had to be taken one-handed while guiding the horse and keeping him in check. I couldn't decided between my two favorites. Alternative is in other album: http://365project.org/taffy/365/2017-01-03

Taken today, camera date setting was way off.

Fantastic picture especially one handed.

[Graeme Stevens]

Love this one

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I like this one too- but I think that strong zig zag in the other slightly beats out this one for the favorite.

[Jake Sorensen]

Awesome

[Beryl Lloyd]

Wonderful silhouette against the rising mist Perhaps for me the other image has a slight ( very slight ) edge over this one !! fav

[Helene]

Awesome silhouette. Love it in b&w fav

[Babs]

I love this version. fav

[Issi Bannerman]

Super capture - so glad you got out there on some of those horses! Last time I did that, with my daughter, I realised how difficult it is to take photographs on horseback - even on the calmest of horses! There's always movement of some sort, and I wasn't letting go of the reins, even for a moment!

[Lyn Todd]

stunning capture & balanced composition Taffy. :)

[JoMo]

Love it.

[Pam Knowler]

Stunning light in this one and again wonderful composition!! Both stunning images! Another Fav!!

[Margo]

[ChristineL]

I think I prefer this one, but they're both so atmospheric and well captured :)

[Clare Gadsby]

oh and that's fabulous also

[Sally Ings]

Super captureand great silhouettes

[Barb]

Love this too but I think the other one has the edge for me. Both wonderful shots!

[Wylie]

this one is great too, but voting for the other one.

[Catherine P]

Superb!

[Debby Davies]

Excellent pic

[Dione Giorgio]

This looks more western. Must have been an exiting experience. Beautiful in b&w against the strong sunlight.

[DKay]

So nice!

[Lin]

This one is also amazing!

[☠northy]

I love this... an enchanting escape image :)

[Kathryn 🐎]

This is stunning !

[Greg Kowalski]

I really like this one. The horses off in the distance adds an element of anticipation and thinking what will happen next!

[Domenico Dodaro]

But this one is even better!

[Danette Thompson]

While this is beautiful, I like the other better.

[Mona]

I do like this a little better. But both are gorgeous.

[Leon Buijs]

Great silhouettes

[Keith Keller]

Awesome silhouette

[Tony]

Love the silhouetted horses. I vote for this one.

[Walks @ 7]

One handed silhouettes- sounds like a good name music group.

[Taffy]

@jamibann I learned a good, humbling lesson with this ride! And today walking is a challenge...definitely out of shape and wasn't thinking clearly, but glad I have the shots I did get (I had to delete dozens of them).

[Ron]

Oh, what we will do for a shot, huh? Your photo came up on every browsing platform I looked at today, PP, TP, and it was on my curated page too! That algorithm knows what I like!

[Helen Jane]

This one is my favourite. Such a lovely balance and sense of atmosphere.

[Louise & Ken]

I'm looking at your stunning photos of horses on the beaches of Mexico and wishing I'd never tried to take my one bad photo. Waiting to see your images would have been a far better idea could I have predicted the future back then!

I'm SO PLEASED for you that you had a marvelous vacatiob!

[Taffy]

@Weezilou Many thanks!! We just got back to Bill and Junko's, had dinner, and watched a few episodes of Mozart in the Jungle. We move into the city on Saturday to a short term rental. It's so cold and now we're dealing with reality -- much nice to have been in Baja! Hope you are healing quickly.
