Description

This image is part of a series of images, exploring the simple beauty of curves and contours, defining the boundaries of objects and the space around them. This is a horse eating its breakfast, on an early summer morning, in a dark, west facing stable. The door opening allowed in just enough of the morning sun to illuminate only the spine and neck of the animal. By resting the camera on the stable door, I was able to shoot at 1/25 of a second and capture the richness and texture of the skin and mane, glistening in the ray of sunlight.
