My extremely patient horse, a Jack update, and photo Q..

[Jackson]

Unfortunately Jack went lame at the beginning of last week as I was trotting him around a corner. He spooked a bit and just wasn't right afterwards so unfortunately although he is sound now, we're back to minimal riding

So, the monster had his own photoshoot today ( by myself, they are not pro-pics, button pushers )

I'm going to share this one first, he shouldn't have been running around (!!!) and was supposed to be having a roll in the school after we had finished but he looks gorgeous

Getting the exposure right on horses with lots of white is so hard!

Curly mane after!

At risk of turning this in to a PG thread, I will stop with the images now, if you want to see the rest of the album, it is here

We would have been doing an intro test today if he was still reliably sound


My question is, when/if you have had a photog shoot with your horse, what sort of poses did you do? My photographer that I am studying for college has given me a few ideas, but I just wanted to ask and get a few more.
Thanks!

Thank you three Hopefully he will come right soon. He can take as long as he wants but he's such a pain when he's bored and not in work

This was him tonight, before I put his rug on.

I love how he's poking his little tounge out

Lovely photos. For photo inspiration have a look at Tim Flach's website - he is amazing.

Thank you Mle22, I am actually looking at him for my photography course! His embroyo photos (?) are amazing, and the rest of his work is more like paintings than photos, but in a good way!

Aw, I hope yours is better too what is wrong with him? I'm afraid mine doesn't cope too well with extended periods away from 'civilisation'. Unfortunately he only inherited cobby looks and not hardiness.

What a gorgeous boy

Thank you
