Nikon D200. Nikon 18-200mm lens.
Four white horses shot in the Absaroka mountains about 1.5 hours east of Jackson Hole, Wyoming and about 0.5 west of Dubois, Wyoming.
This was shot at about 2:00 pm on an overcast and very windy and chilly afternoon!
Post processing was done using Photoshop (CS4; removed some dirt from the horses backs and darkened the edges) and OnOne Software (PhotoTune 3; added a softening and glow layer.).
