[LRflex] Re: leicareflex Digest V3 #209

Hi Ted,
While looking at your B&W flower photo, I chanced upon your amazing
shot of the wild horses against the sky/cloud background:

The drama of untamed wilderness is well conveyed by your sense of
composition and timing, and B&W seems to accentuate the communion of
thundering hooves with thunderheads.  Could be a still scene from a
movie!  Just wanted to let you know I think it is a beautiful shot!

Cheers, Eric Chan

Wow Steve! - Quite an achievement - nice exposre!  The arched plume
makes the shot, and the clouds truly enhace it.  Once again, B&W
renders the airsow as a piece of art rather than a doce
