Help Me!

Today's word was Mane for the photo challenge. I spent the morning with Curt helping out, and got home in time for a lovely evening light (yes, yes! The clouds parted momentarily for me!) I let Apple Pony out to play, hoping to get a few flowing mane shots, and he was happy to oblige.
Check it out. He's having a race...can you see his race partner?

I must admit there's something a little unsettling about having a 1200 lb drafty boy heading your way with the above expression!
Something I learned today: Even though the assignment was 'mane', try not to cut off your subject's feet! If I had been more in tune to the total picture, these would have turned out much better.

What beautiful pictures Tracey! I love them all.
Sooo handsome a boy!! Great pictures Tracey!
Nice pictures - he is really moving in the last two! ;-)
I vote for the top mane one, but I am inexplicably drawn to teal.
I never did see who he was racing - is it the wind?
(Darn. now that song is stuck in my head...)
I'm rather drawn to the top one as well, Breathe. It's kind of winterish, even a bit eerie (headless horseman!)
I think your photos were great. In fact, if you cropped the legs off entirely it would bring more emphasis to the mane and movement. Sometimes the legs can actually be a distraction.
The last photo made me smile, too. The way the forelock and mane is lifted, looks like a fancy lady with an old fashioned bouffant. hehe!

I like the 2nd photo--- the colors in it are incredible. They all rock, though.
I thought Apple Pony found a home?... I'm so confused about who is actually at your place right now. One of these days can you post an update?
Thanks for all the gorgeous photos!
