    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I got ya. I use to ride horses, but it's been years ago. My aching bones stick to the SUV and the Gold Wing now. :):

    If cigarettes weren't such instruments of death, it would of made a great Marlboro man shot.

    Another view
    I love this shot, and did a double-take when I saw the same horses, shot probably on the same day, on DP Review yesterday - it is at the Nikon D50/70 thread of 22 Sept called something like "For all you Horse Fans out there".
    Quite a different angle/perspective/treatment and the scene appreciated by the people who have looked at it. Coming to Smugmug soon by the sound of it.

    Look-alikes Sold
    The DP Review image has a buyer - possibly I'm wrong and they're not the same horses - or maybe a different day.

    Thanks Possum and Ric. Sorry I'm late with a response, but with my travels and now playing nursemaid to my wife after her shoulder operation I just missed this one.

    Possum, David Stern and I shot together on that trip. We were on a Pop Photo trip together. So you are very observant as they are in fact the same horses.
