PHOTO OF THE MONTH
DECEMBER 2011



Long To Be Free
by Sainty
Thumb Up




From Sainty

"I took this image as part of a series that I'm doing on the Northumberland coast.
Picking days where the light is good such as this day when I had a lot of cloud and I wasn't going to have an issue with burnout on the white of the horse.
Nothing special to the rest as all I do is let the horse dictate its own position and I move around clicking like mad. I think this was one of  more than a hundred.
As soon as I saw it on the back of the camera I knew I had got something I liked very much.
Thanks for voting this image potm its really is most appreciated.

Sainty".
  



CONGRATULATIONS Sainty!

Please don't give this lad too much encouragement although it is a cracking image. Whatever you do do not give him your telephone number or have any contact with him....you will regret it.

Nice picture pet.Congratulations.

I have just re-read my notes from January 11th and I do hope that none of thought I was being serious. Keith and I are very good friends and we both enjoy a bit of leg pulling. His work is indeed first class and I do envy the images of these horses which are close to his home town. Keith is a smashing fellow and unfortunately has just recently lost his mother.Unfortunately he doesn't have transport at the moment so is struggling a bit to get to locations.
