Hey Cornelius,
Beautiful image, you've captured the action very nicely here,
I also love the slightly cold/purple touch to it, sets a different mood,
Nicely done,
Hi Cornelius,
I have been sitting here, going back and forth between your "Concentration" picture, and this one. I can't help but notice that vast differences of the shots. It's the same horse, rider and area, yet two completely different moods. In "Concentration" I get the feeling of excitement, maybe because of the closeness of the subjects and the angle, and in this picture, it's like the lull in the middle of a storm. I think it's because the subjects seem to be just taking their good old time getting back after a hard ride. Also the horse is almost a silhouette. The colors are more subdued in this also. I must say that you are a master at creating "feeling" in your pictures. I dream of having that kind of talent.
Lu 17:24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.

How graceful the horse and rider appear in almost silhouette against the water. I like the mood of this image. I'll have to go back and see what Jim is talking about.
