Great shot Gene – love the framing of the third horse in the background – a mare waiting for the outcome? “Who’s my next mate?”

Is this two images in one? even if it is it’s a great photo, good work

How often can such an intense activity could be caught so eloquently! These are YOUR horses, Gene…. to preserve and protect and show to the world! Thank you for so many beautiful pictures of such beautiful creatures.

Powerful image!! Amazing capture!

WOW!! AMAZING SHOT.

This is just amazing. The timing couldnt be more perfect. Love it!

Amazing shot. I love the way you capture nature…

good job Horse Whisper, do you promise them sweet treats, do you drive a horse sweet trailer, the fact you get such clear photos, the feel from them to me shows they have accepted you, going to see if you have done a journal on your time with this “tribe” of beasts and if you have not well you should and if you have, thanks

Gene: a great photograph. you have captured the moment perfectly. well done.

Are you the horse whisper? I agree with the previous comment. I would not have thought about it the way she did. They have accepted you. These are some awesome pictures. Some day I would like to do what you are doing. But I know my daughter will do it before me. She is at awe at what you are doing. Keep up the great work. Kathy

I just need to add about the horse in the middle. This is just wonderful. I love everything about this picture. I feel that I am right there watching. One of these horses stepped out of their boundries.

wow! really great timing… amazing capture and excellent!!

Amazing Capture this is Brilliant

What a catch!!

What an incredible capture!!!

How many different ways can we say amazing? This is awe-inspiring work.

Wow !!!! that is an amazing photo !!!!

Awesome shot…. very cool

Its all been said Gene. Awesome capture

Ditto, ditto, & ... ditto! Breathtaking photo.

Stunning image!

Excellent!

Fantastic!

Wow….great capture and timing!

How incredible is this shot!!! Just spectacular!!

Amazing photo! I absolutely love horses—we live near some, but they’re spoiled and always have the coat thingy on. Doesn’t make very nice pictures!

Outstanding capture of these beautiful horses!

off the scale my friend!!! the best I have seen all year!!!!

What a fantastic capture. The composition is just perfect. Well done.

wonderful !

Excellent capture.

This one is great, Geno! Timing is perfect and so is the comp!
Jean (bluejean77 on soa)

Wow,, this is awsome, Gene,..how great of a capture in a ‘moment’..congrats.!

O my wow what a shot ….....

How awesome is that! They were posing just for you!

What an awesome picture! The mass of weight and moves are amazing.

What can I add to all my learned friends kind words – stunning will do, double stunning

That is the best photo ever, I have seen about horses – unbelievable. I grew up with horses – and I must say, you captured the essence of the spirit par excellence!

thanks – Ursula Tillmann

stunning work!

Did I see this at Soa?? (I can’t keep up wit it all..heh.)
It’s beyond amazing. Sometimes you hit that place in life..that one moment..
like a “crack in time” so to speak..and it allows you to barely capture something
so perfect…and then you know it’s gone. But you got the shot. ;)
This is it.

Such a stunning moment! Forceful, elegant and beautiful at the same time….....

Just to see this is such a privilege – I’ve had horses for 12 years and have never been lucky enough to witness such a scene – and then to have the camera ready for a superb composition. Wow. I dream of one day taking a picture like this.

Your works are so special. beautiful and powerful.

outstanding composition, focus, exposure, everything..wow

Incredible capture; the compostion, dof, focus, color, lighting the whole nine yards Gene; this is exquisite!!!

amazing capture !

awesome!!!!!!! i love it!!

Amazing capture-talk about timing!! What a moment, especially with the middle horse watching! Hey, maybe they aren’t fighting-could be “dancing”!! (grin) Into my favs!

What an incredible capture! One in a million : )

Boy was this Your LUCKY DAY!!!!! What an AMAZING SHOT!!! Kim

Wow! thats a great shot!!!!

This is a spectacular capture – showin’ off for the females!

Could it be Colts against the Patriots??

Wow absolutely beautiful

Well done. An excellent capture and great timing. The horse in the middle gives another wonderful balance and focus point to the comp. The blurred lighter BG helps to emphasize the stallions and the colors and details are great. Consider a slight crop at the bottom to remove some of the blurred bushes in the foreground or clone them out…

Perfection!!

Rivalry? or ballroom dancing? LOL This is an amazing capture

This is such a wonderful piece of work – love it

I am so excited that my copy of this print has been shipped and is on its way Geno! Everytime I look at it I am found holding my breath! How close do you get to these guys to get it so clear? I looked up our wild horse range here and it is only about five miles away (the opening part) from where I live now so I have not excuse but to make it up there soon.

Great capture, love it. Beautiful.:)
