Horse Photo Competition 1 2017 : Entry Number 40

Judges Comment

This is a stunning and evocative image. The decision to convert to black-and-white, with deep shadows and bright highlights, makes this image standout, and allows the viewer's eye to follow the line of white horses out and into the expanse of landscape. Nicely captured and handled in post. ~ illona

Heading for Low Ground: This image was taken near Honey Tor on Dartmoor in Devon, UK, using my Fujifilm X100S. The clouds were rolling in and this group of grey Dartmoor Hill Ponies were coming off of the Tor and heading for low ground to avoid the worst of the coming storm.
