Stormy Skies

Ok so I haven't yet figured out how to post pics correctly so please pardon the spacy pic layout.

The other night we had some spectacular skies. Clouds were rolling in but the sun was setting giving everything a golden, errie hue. The picutres don't do the skies justice. I love taking pictures of the horses when the sun is setting. The light bounces off the horses giving them golden highlights.

I can't remember now if we got any rain from these clouds or not but it sure did make for some interseting pictures.

I'd like to put some of the pictures into Photoshop so that I can lighten up the images and remove the spook eyes from some of the horses. I love the backdrop colors of the pic with Sam and Rain.

On an off note, Sam scared the bageebers out of me the night before last. Sam has been so attached to Rain it's pathetic. Sam is pretty much attached to Rain 24x7. I've been saying they've been attached to each other by the brain lately. But Sam scared me. Rain came up into the drylot and Sam didn't follow. I started to panic. Sam is still pretty thin so I started running through the worst case senarios. I really thought that he had died out in the pasture. Dude, King, Chaos, and Rain were in the drylot and Bob was standing in the barn. I started walking down the lane and I saw a body. I was sure it was Sam laying out in the pasture and that he'd passed away. Never mind I completely forgot about Brego! I started running through the pasture to find out that the body I saw was Brego munching on grass while Sam was farther down the hill eating. Good lord! But as I walked up, Brego decided to lay down and start eating (he was too lazy to stand and graze, he decided he would curl up and graze). It took a bit of coaxing but I got both Sam and Brego into the drylot. By that time my heart was back out of my throat.

Sam = 1 / Shanna = 0

More storm clouds over Borderlands.

I love the light that shines down the driveway and hits the barn. It gives the place a golden hue. Brego has really turned into a healthy,happy horse. He's adjusted well to the big herd. I can walk up to him with a halter and he doesnt' care. I can pick on him and he doesn't care.

Doesn't Brego look relaxed and happy? He doesn't look like he has poor comfirmation in this pic either. I'm hoping that he'll go through another growth spurt and not be as gangly but I'm betting this is the way he'll be from now on. But I guess I'm ok with it. He gets along great with the entire herd and isn't aggressive. I love having passive horses who like to hang out with me and not demand much. If I can walk up to them and give them a great big hug without them giving a care in the world, that's the horse for me. Brego lets me give hugs and kisses. I love it.
