Okay, just one more. This big stallion was penned by himself at the Burns adoption corrals. And for good reason I imagine. Quite the horse. And quite the handful for anyone who wanted to adopt him. The reason I thought of this is I just saw Secretariat and boy what a horse he was. I remember the whole country was pulling for him to win the Triple Crown, and he blew everyone away. The movie was good enough. I think Malkovic seemed bored. The footage of the races, those powerful animals blowing out of the gate, and Big Red refusing to be beaten.
MJF Images Fine Art landscape, nature and travel images from the American West and around the world.
A photo & travel blog with a difference: Instead of strict focus on photo how-to, gear and the like, I'll pass on knowledge about the places and cultures photographed. I believe the more deeply you come to know a place, the better your pictures will be.
My past careers as science teacher and geologist mean that I can't help but teach about the natural history of photogenic places around the world. But photography is not forgotten. You'll also see practical tips about where and how to photograph the destinations. And once a week, Friday Foto Talk gives photography tips and how-to on a selected topic, for novices on up to expert.
What you won't find here is endless discussion about me braving dangerous weather, terrain or wild animals to get the shot. Nor will there be cheerleading gear talk or marketing pitches. I promise to leave that to other blogs, of which there are many.
Please don't be shy; your words are what makes my day!
