Sorry.
Priviet, dear friends!
We have a place - Malishevo - near voronezh with stable there. My wife Galina love horses and learn how to ride.
I thought It might be interesting to you - some shots taken there -
1. Edward - he works there (You know how I like portraits :-).

2. Katya - also works there. BTW - very interesting horse

3. With blue eyes. So called 'Ahaltekinetz'

4. With rose skin - Isabella (red wine) color

5.

6. Anna - so young but an experienced rider...

7. And - let me introduce to you - my beloved wife Galina!



Spasibo,
Yuri

Wow is that an albino horse? First time I've seen one like that, the eyes really draw you in! Very awesome set of shots as usual

#1 would be excellent if the focus was right. Since the focus is wrong (on the hair) - it makes it just 'good' (the character is very well captured!)

#2 - is a MAGICAL shot for me for some reason... It's something about femininity - a combination of horses and the girl (Katia) - the blush in her cheeks, the horses' heads extended towards her.

#3 is a very nice portrait (of the horse, obviously) and certainly is a keeper and well done - but doesn't stand out for me.

I don't know what can be done with #2 - but I'd sit very long and tried different (but gentle!) ways to process it to further emphisize the 'femininity' aspect of it... this shot (to me) has a MAJOR potential - a real rarity!

I believe I am right in calling that horse a cremello. They are definitly different, and rare as a special mixture of the right genes is how it is produces, and then it's only by chance!

Beautiful shots, I like the "eye" shot best myself...but I find there is a lot of distraction over to the left hand side of the photo.

Congrats to your wife, it's not an easy or altogether safe thing to learn to do hats off to her!
