Frosting by Chris Snyder
The wild ponies of Grayson Highlands don’t seem to mind the layer of snow and ice on their winter coats. Still they have to work at keeping fat for the harsh conditions that the Virginia Highlands experience.
Canon 7D with Canon 100-400 f4.5-5.6 shot at 400mm and f5.6.
This appears in my latest Grayson Highlands Pony Calendar.

omg, how stunningly beautiful this is! I am so in love with this image…you take the best horse/pony pics ever! I really love the focus on the mane with the other horse blurred in the bg. We would be honoured if you would submit this to You Big Softy:http://www.redbubble.com/groups/you-big-s...
Just great, look forward to seeing the calendar! Hope the B&W of the stallion is in it. :) Tony
Thanks Tony. The black and white is in the running :-)
