I shot this a week or so ago just outside Vancouver on a ranch.
You can’t tell from this picture, but it is actually snowing here. I froze my buns of waiting for this beautiful light. I wanted to use a strobe in this shot, but my batteries died so I had to shoot au natural. I also couldn’t manage to put the lens hood on because my fingers were frozen solid. Hence the crazy lens flare. I like it though. I might try to PS it out, see if it looks better without.
I loved being out in this beautiful landscape with these majestic animals & rugged Barry the cowboy of course!

Great shot. Have you taken photos of the horse alone ?
