I do not know much about that method, but have heard that if done right it is safe and there is nothing wrong with it.

yes, I understand. Still a great old time photo. One year a farmer used their horse locally and I went out an took photos, and ever since I have wanted to try a similar shoot again.

It may also help to over expose the photo by a half stop or more, as this would help with the exposure of the main subject.

I like how you captured the motion with the horse's leg position and that you can clearly see the surrounding environment.

Overall technically correct, but the halter in the plane of focus is a little distracting as well as the framing could be improved.

Well done, great exposure and a classic looking into the horse soul photo.

Nice shoot. Exposure, timing, and framing are all great. I love the marking on the foals face.

SohCahToa says:

Overall this shot is technically correct, but there could be more emotion is the man was looking at the camera or connecting more with the horse.

I love the lighting. In my opinion this photo could be improved by more room on the left as the horse seem tight to the frame when the other has so much room.

Nice old time photo. I think it could be improved by shooting lower and having a narrower depth of field.

I like that you shot at the horses eye level and framed tight. I take in that the lower quality is do to poor lighting in the barn.

I love standardbreds. Nice job composition the horses as a triangle at different depths with on the front in focus.

Good exposure on a tricky subject, black and white horse. I am interested in what the rope around the horses neck is for? is is tied that way?

I love this shot. Great exposure and framing. It is great how you framed both the horse and reflection.

Ooh.... what
avatar SohCahToa
SohCahToa says:

The background is not that distracting, as you did a good job at have a narrow depth of field; however, the image may have been improve by shooting more on the horses eye level.

SohCahToa says:

I really like this shoot, but agree that having the horse off center may have helped the photo. You have a nice leading line with the fence that could have been better taken advantage of if you framed the image so the fence was in each corner. But I know these shots are fast, and you did a great job.

Nice exposure and framing, but the focus is off and it is preferred to have the front legs in a tucked in position.

I like the lighting, but the image quality is low and there is a lot of blur in the photo.

is his head really that big or is is a wide angle lens? If it is a distortion, I thing it adds to the images. I love the big puppy dog eyes. Wish the focus was a little better.

Very cute. Wish you could have got a little more light in his eyes. They look like black orbs, makes me think of the quotes they say about whale eyes.

For what reason? The colors would pop with a better exposure. Right now the bottom right corner is the brightest, thus it pull my eyes from the vase and flowers.

One rose

SohCahToa says:

I love the idea. But too dark. The tones are all gray and black. Expose so that the flower is closer to white. It will stand out more.

I feel the background is too busy. Distracts from the vase and flowers.

Sorry for your loss. I love her blue eyes. Could improve with a better focus on the eyes, not behind on the ears.

SohCahToa says:

I like the concepts. However I would say the image is a little underexposed. Snow is hard because it overwhelms the camera exposure, so you have to use exposure compensation.

I love this picture and dog. Although the black in the background is a little distracting, but it is nice that you have rim lighting on the ears. I would like to see the ears have a little more light, mostly his left one is too dark.
