Dinnertime?

Just a Fuzzy Muzzle!

Still bedewed with water droplets from his frigid early morning drink, Blaze’s fuzzy little muzzle is silhouetted against the sunrise.

This adorable post: http://h2obyjoanna.wordpress.com/2012/02/10/41365-snowy-nose-of-a-shetlander/ – from h2o by Joanna, a fellow photography blogger, is what reminded me of my shot of Blaze.

Elegance at the Fence

Feb10

My sweet, friendly Morgan mare, Elle, stands at the fence. She would stand around to be stroked and scratched all day long and never get tired of it.

When I walk out our door, or when I feed the chickens for Bridger – anytime Elle can see me – she whickers a greeting. It’s like having a dog who loves me, only better!

Alert!

Feb5

I love the light in early morning on a sunny day, especially filtered by a canopy of leaves and intercepted and reflected by my horses!

What is approaching up the driveway? If you keep half an eye on your horses, there’s not much you will miss.

Something moving this way comes - 2010

Horses keep an eye on everything that moves – in this case, Mike, Zookie, and Buttercup running.

Elegance in the Pasture

Feb4

My friendly, beautiful Morgan mare. I named her Blue Flag Elegance, predicting that the funny, little foal with a fuzzy brush tail would grow into her name.

I think maybe she did 🙂

The Grass Was Greener

Feb2

While this is a portrait of Blaze, Bridger’s POA (a Pony of the Americas – basically an Appaloosa in miniature), it is also an afternoon flashback, to a time when the grass was green. To when there was grass to be green! In the past we would have noticed Blaze’s eager expression, his black and white and pink coloring, his ratty old halter… This time when we saw this photo, Bridger and I both thought, “Wow, look how green that grass is!”
