Cool summer evening

Beautiful race horses and their foals graze on a farm in northern Connecticut. Couldn't pass this scene without snapping a picture.

Needs no comment but if I could use one word it would simply be "beautiful".

Artist Reply: Thank you very much for your generous comment Gordon. I'm especially proud to hear it coming from a photographer of your caliber. Truly appreciated.

I have seen something very close to this many a morning at the horse farm across the road from us.... but I have never been able to get the right shot..... you certainly did :)

Artist Reply: I have to admit that this is actually a morning shot. I put "evening" in the title because I've seen more red skies in the evening than in the morning. Plus, I was a little superstitious about the old adage, "Red sky at night, sailor's delight; red sky in morning, sailor take warning." Thank you for your comment.
