Spring Creek Basin Mustangs

Another something a little different. You’re supposed to at least see the subject’s head/face in wildlife photography, let alone a “catchlight” in the eye (at least one of them). A pic of a tail probably isn’t, um, traditionally considered a successful pic? 🙂

Just call me a photography rebel!

And let me know if something, anything, about this pic appeals to you … or not!?

(For photography nerds, this pic is nearly exactly as it came out of the camera. I cropped out a bit of the extraneous (?) darkness, and I applied some “sharpening,” and that’s it.)

The days are still fairly warm; the nights are cold enough for a coat (hair, fur, feather or otherwise!). During the short, sunshine-filled days, if it’s quiet enough, naps are almost a must-do.

Could Piedra be any more unabashedly beautiful?

No. The answer is no, she absolutely could NOT! Lovely girl. 🙂

Maia is as pretty in the spring of her birth as she is in the low autumn light with a fuzzy coat and the rabbitbrush already puffy.

Who *doesn’t* adore backlighting!?

Love her whiskers and the wind-tossed flip of just that one strand of mane. 🙂
