Sunday Stills

This week's Sunday Stills Photo Challenge is "Water." That opens up a lot of opportunities...none of which seemed to work out for me the way I had the photos visioned in my mind.


Middle Fork John Day River
Grant County Oregon






Colt enjoying a drink.


























I finally got a drop coming off of Colt's chin.





But, this is what Colt thinks of photography!!


See more "water" photography here.

    What a cooperative horse! I wanted to do a water droplet one too, but my camera isn't good enough to catch macro-motion. Good job!

    Very nice, I like the John Day River best, and the Bighorn sheep.

    Oh, fabulous shots! My horse wouldn't cooperate when I was out there. Brat. I loooove the drop off his chin! The tongue is so cute! His reaction is great! Too funny!

    Thanks for the wonderful comments on my blog. You put me in tears! :)

    I like the first pic of Colt drinking water, the ripples and the reflection are nice.

    Great shot of the colt, looks like you were getting a bit close. Nothing like cold water after work or play.
    After struggling with posting to some sites I licked the problem - finally.
