Amazing... This is just beautiful! Love the strong colours and I
love how the sun hits the horse, making it shine ¦o)

I like the crop too, shows a very pretty face.

This seems a bit unsharp. I ran it through photoshop and tested
unsharpmask and it made it quite a lot sharper, but I guess the
horse was running when you captured this?

I get a feeling of freedom when looking at this... and it makes
me think of so many things I want to do...

Nice one! ¦o)

Oh, a motivation. Thank you very much. ;o)

Yeah, it's a bit unsharp, but as you said, it was running, and i was shooting with my 400mm-lens, which weighs about 1,2Kilos... So, that's piece of the reason as well.

Freedom? How come? I mean, the other one I did with a horse, Running Free, should give you more of that feeling I think.

Thank you, once again.

Wow! That's one heavy lense! ¦oO Seems like photographers have to start
lifting wheights and get strong before they can take good pics ;o) hehe...

Freedom? Well, yeah, I saw the other one too and I just connected them I
think... But this is also a shot of 'nature'. Not the usual liveshot that I do,
or pics of buildings in a city or whatever... You're outside with great sunshine,
and the colours pluss the horse gives me freedom... It's 'open land' rather
than a closed room ¦o)

I'd love to try shooting a horse like you have with both your shots, they look
good ¦o)

Yeah, it's heavy. Good thing I'm strong though, hehe.

I suppose you're right on that one. But, I mean, just grab your gear and get outside for a walk with a friend/dog/partner/whatever, and you'll bump in to these kind of things.
That's actually exactly what happened on these shots.

And, btw, do you pay to get into these concerts, or do you haul out like a Photographer's ID, or something?

Hehe... go out and snap a brickbuilding ;o) I live in the heart of the city, hehe...
But when I have some time off during summer, maybe I'll get some cool landscapeshots ¦o)

I pay for some and get in for free at some, depends on if I'm reviewing the show or not ¦o)

Oh, so you're a writer as well? For what magazine, if I may ask?

Heh, well... You live in Norway...? Seriously, you can't have mor than a couple of kilometers until you're at some kind of nature scenery?

From Stockholm, it's like... approx. 20 minutes by train/subway/bus, and you're in the 'wilderness'...

Writing for musiq.no ¦o)

When I have more time, I will answer nature's call
and travel out to the wilderness >;o)

Do you really need to travel? ^__^;

And well, if you feel like sightseeing, I'm up for most ideas.
