Thought I'd seen some racing horses in my time. Never one with red socks though. A perfect rural autumn scenery, the equipage running through the stubble fields. From Felisol
That's a great shot, crisp, colorful, well composed, and with so much implied motion... I aspire to that level of photography, with only occasional success!
This is a beautiful horse, and not just the socks, but his coat seems to have a bit of red in it as the sun shines on this equine racer. I have never seen harness racing, but I'd spend as much time admiring the horse competitors ad figuring which one of thew to place money on...
What a beautiful horse. His coat looks so smooth and shiny, and the red socks are a fun whimsical touch (though I'm sure they've got some higher purpose than just RT fodder).
My father was a great fan of sulky racing. It's called harness racing here on the West Coast and it took me (a child) a long time to realize they were the same. That's a lovely set of red socks.
Thanks for visiting my little corner of the world. I hope you enjoyed your stay here. Please leave a comment before you leave so I can visit your blog.

Those socks are great, EG! Are they for warmth for the horse or just for color? Good luck in the RT giveaway! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the red socks!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Not only the outstanding red socks, but also the subtle red noseband for accent.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great shot, crisp, colorful, well composed, and with so much implied motion... I aspire to that level of photography, with only occasional success!
ReplyDeleteTerrific - you caught the horse's motion perfectly - nares flared, mane flying...just wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhy the red socks?
And is the "farmer" training the horse for racing or just having fun?
You don't have to answer - those are just rhetorical musing rumbling through my head!
