Or maybe a game of "Simon Says."

Horses are so alert that you can't sneak up on them. That these guys are so "laid back" indicates they've had a lot of experience at it.
Good capture, Tim- and funny.
Charlie

Haha, this is great!

Thanks, Charlie.
With huge crowds every weekend during the fall at this farm, these horses are pretty used to the people by now. It's a neat place. Lots of animals to see, fresh apples for sale, pumpkins + more, and there's a huge hay maze for the kids. They also shoot a pumpkin out of a Nikon...er...Cannon ( ) every 20 minutes.

Tim, are you talking about fresh horse apples for sale?
Charlie

Could you share a few secrets about your conversion? Looks great, I love the light and the contrast.

Prefer the front-end loading.
Definitely works as a set as presented.
Classic, dated look works well here.

Ya got 'em coming and going, Tim. Nice tone and processing.

The owner of this farm has a sleigh. I'm thinking his larger horses not shown here are doing the work though!

Ha! No, plenty of those for free! Not a great place to go barefoot!

The bottom line to processing on this was to saturate the original heavily, and then I converted to b/w in Nik software. I rarely use the defaults,and to be honest, I never use the same tweaks twice, so I can't actually tell you what I did because I don't remember! But that is the basic breakdown.

Thanks, Scott.
Figured I try this side-by-side thing for something like this.
I like these sepia toned images for horses.

Thank you, Ray.
Yeah, difference between these guys and you and I is that they're not feeling guilty for laying around! You and I keep looking at our dusty bicycles!
Soon, my friend....soon!

As has been said, excellent capture. The one small thing I noticed is a slight difference in brightness between the two. If you plan on displaying them( you should), you might want to even them up.

Thank you for the kind feedback.
I noticed this too, once I got done. I'm new to presenting these side-by-side images, and haven't figured it all out yet. But there surely is a difference in the brightness between them which needs attention.
