Red on Black
Sometimes blogging is a chore.
Last week I had 0 motivation to get content up. While I usually have several posts in a queue in case there’s nothing current to say, my well ran dry last week and I had no desire to build it back up. This week I actually do have some post ideas, but spending some r&r time with the husband is more important.
So you get my handsome Simon.
The post processing on these is pretty quick & dirty with my iPad app vs Photoshop, but they’re still some of the best black background shots that I’ve taken of him.
Last summer I wrote a tutorial on how to take basic equine black background shots. If you like these, they’re really not that hard to do.
Simon makes a pretty good model for headshots, but every now and then he gets the need to make faces.
By the end of our photoshoot yesterday, he let me know that a flash strap is not his favorite.
Still, I love the new bridle (review post soon!) and more importantly I love these pictures of my favorite nerd horse.
Though I do have to say, he looks a lot less nerdy here than normal.

He looks fantastic in it!! What a stud 🙂
You must frame at least one of those!

Those photos are amazing. What a gorgeous horse (and bridle).
