Amish Work Horses
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 12 December 2007 in Animal & Insect.
Too wet to work. Amish farm in the background. The red cord in front of the horses is actually an electrified wire. The farmer told me later that the red wire isn't as effective as the white ones he usually uses because the animals apparently don't see it as well. (The following was an incorrect statement: That red twine is all that keeps them in.)

I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

They're all posing for their portrait. How'd you get them to do that?
Great shot!

A fabulous shot of these beautiful animals. They are obviously very well-trained if that twine is all that keeps them there.

Stunning shot. All I want to do is sit and stare back at them.
