One of a kind shot Clifford. The evening light reflecting in the pond really sets the relaxing mood and showcases the horses. Terrific shot.

Thank you so much Debra, I was racing past to catch a train in the fading light and quickly turned back and was able to get this shot off before the light was gone

Jane LeBlanc

Lovely scene, Clifford. I wonder if horses get hot feet, like we do, and it felt good to cool them in the pond. Anyway, lovely light and composition.

Good questions that I never thought of. Thank you for your comments glad you like the photograph.

Heather Mellon

Very nice composition, tones and detail here and I love how the sky reflection on the water highlights this beautiful trio as they chill out together. You captured the mood perfectly Clifford in all of its beauty.

Thank you Heather, very much appreciated

Yves Langlois

Beautyful scene Clifford. Even in the shadow of the sunset (top right corner) these 3 wild horses draw the eye to them. Great composition with the yellow sunset in extra. Very well done.

You can almost feel the quiet stillness. A lovely, relaxing scene Clifford.
