Day 231: A Horse Is A Horse

Today I made it out a bit late in order to catch the sunset. There were no clouds in the sky, and then suddenly some appeared so I took off to find something interesting. This is not the way that it should be done. On the way to find something interesting I saw a very cool sunset. With the glow still in the sky I was determined to get something to put on this blog for today. I saw this cool looking barn that I wanted to place in front of the orange sky. Two horses were walking into it, and I jumped out of the car to try and get the last one before it went in. The horse saw me and came right over to the fence. I took a couple of steps over then forgetting about the orange sky. My new goal was to get the horse and the barn in the shot. Taking shots handheld with the sun already down is never a good idea, but this shot came out okay. I had enough light left to get what I wanted with a low ISO. For some reason the color shot was not working for me so I tried a black and white conversion. I really liked what I saw. For something that came together as quickly as this did I am happy with my shot. I just wish that the guardrail was not in the way so that I could see the entire horse. On a day when I thought that I would have to settle for my shot I came up with something unique for this blog. On day 231 that is saying something. I find it very weird that today was the day that I watched Trey Ratcliff HDR a horse on his webinar that I have been watching. I will have a bit more on that later when I can get something good to HDR.
