I really liked this photograph I took at a pulling contest at the Walworth County Fair in Wisonsin this year.
These Belgians couldn't wait to do their job and it was amazing to watch their enthusiasm, strength, power, and beauty... all in one!
I used just a tad of Gaussian Blur in the background. About 9 degrees.

These are fine horses. They have different names, but in Belgium, they are called Braboncons (from the province of Brabant). My wife is Belgian and she works very hard, but she doesn't like it when I call her My Brabonconne. Keep up the nice work.William Boyer 07 Oct 2006
