Description This is a spotted gaited horse stallion that lives down the road from my parents. I don't have many paint horses so I figure I would snap one of him. It was pretty cloudy most of the day so I had my ISO set fairly high. Of course the sun had to pop out right at the moment I take the photo. I still like it though.

Again... this captures the "unusual" aspect of your photography. You've gotten many really, really good shots, but they're standard "horse" shots. If you want to win a contest or stand out, you need to submit the ones that are unusual and have a specific quality about them, a signature, if you will. This is one of those pieces. It's definitely yours, but the best part is the focus. The fuzzy fence and the very, very sharp, clear eye are just beautiful.

I really enjoyed this photo as well and probably would have been one of my options but sadly in April I had a harddrive crash and lost everything.:S This one was among them.

I do see what you're saying though and I'll try to keep that in mind while taking photos in the future.

Well, pinto's the color and can be any breed that claims the color tis the reason I was asking.

It's TORTURE I keep see them come through at work We have a Cannon Rebel, and a Sony A100K just on our pallet. I so wish I could just spend my paycheck on it... but then the car insurance would bounce.

No it's only 8 MP but I can live with 8 instead of 10! It's an SLR that's what counts.
