Amber Eyes
“Watching this pretty pony’s sweet face kept me enthralled for a very long time. His curiosity was amusing and he actually liked to pose for me. He kept me company in the golden afternoon hours, offering me his pretty profile and luxurious mane playing with the wind. I could capture many instances of his facial expressiveness.
Here, the pony’s mane brushes the wind while a spark of sheer amber arises from the inquisitive eye. Luscious eyelashes in a fiery copper hue frame the sweet glance of this quiet friend. A true delight of natural beauty”
Artist statement
My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens. I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key.
This is an original uncropped image.

Hi carmen lovely picture love the way you concentrate on the main features of the animals. I think a side view or an unusual expression is more appealing and more though provoking ,although captured in the right way any angle of an animal is splendid.I have just started my redbubble site and already finding it a real buzz,it was by chance i found redbubble.Have not quite worked out how to do t shirt designs and still have a lot of art to upload but when i have i would be interested in the conservation side.Thanks again for your comments.Cheers Davie a.k.a(sosij)
