Just a very small part of a much larger shot. Sometimes I like to go back and "mine" thru older images for pieces that make sense. I noticed this white horse, the motion, and the heavy grainy effect which seemed to have "that look". This was taken right at sunset, from about 3/4 mile while standing in the middle of a 4 lane median. Cropped and boosted contrast.
A little wider view;
The cropped original is only a little over 800 pixels wide.

Excellent! You did such a fantastic job that when looking at this picture I would have no idea that it wasn't your intended shot if you didn't say so.

Mining. . . what a great idea. . . might even work as a challenge! Of course now I'll be spending the rest of my night going through old photos.

This is a great image, especially considering how it was achieved.

Beautiful shot, looks like its been painted. Love the glow coming from the horse, makes the image quite dreamy. Fantastic : )

This is very beautiful, but I would have liked to see the head of the other horse too. I like how you captured the movement. I wish I could run along with them.

Keep up that mining Waddy. This is a good one for this challenge. I think you beautifully highlighted the white horse. Good mind picture of you in the middle of a highway median avoiding getting cars in your shot.
