The Horses Drew Close

Once again, we re-visit the horse.  These two pals were hanging out, perhaps discussing the quality of winter hay or wondering what I was doing, pointing my camera in their direction.

Naturally curious animals,  I can always count on the horses to provide character and depth for my photos.  This particular shot drew my interest as to the contrast: One close, one set back.  Neither seems very interested in the reasoning for the keen interest in equine passions - most likely they are hoping I have apples, carrots or a bag of oats hidden in my backpack.

Curiousity for Equines

Curious.  Pull up your saddle and listen a bit to the stories that a horse can tell.  These 2 equine friends came to their fence line and delivered me an interesting tale, or should we say "tail".  An early morning drive toward Yampa, Colorado was well worth it.  These 2 characters were holding court.  Sadly, there was no other horses near them. So, one did the talking, while the other stood sentry.  It's relieving to know I was spared; at least this Sunday
