Jake the English Shire

I’m not sure if you can tell from the photos, but Jake is HUGE. He is a rescue English Shire horse now living in harmony at Sundown Horse Shelter in Hugo.

I love photographing him, but as you can see, he barely paid me any notice as he gobbled his morning hay and alfalfa.

I could barely get any shots of him not eating. Hey, he has to eat A LOT. Far be it for me to stop him.

I love the look of bliss on his face here.

February Snow

It was “unseasonably warm” in Minnesota today, which is in quotes because it’s still hilarious to me that 35 degrees is considered warm here, but oh well. At least I wasn’t freezing!

Of course, it meant I couldn’t resist going to Sundown Horse Shelter and taking some pictures of all the sweeties there.

The unusual coloring on this guy photographs beautifully; he looks different in every shot.

This sweet-faced horse watched me the entire time I was snapping away. 

 

Black and White Mustang with Logo
I usually prefer color photography with horses, but I liked this image in black and white even better.

 

Jed's Eye with Logo
Did you really think I could make a visit to Sundown without taking about 100 shots of the sweet Jed? 

 

Have you liked my Facebook page? It’s up and running now, and I’d love it if you visited and shared it with any horse-loving friends!

Snowy Horses

I’m sharing some recent photos I took of a few of my favorite horses over at Sundown Shelter in Hugo, Minnesota.

Of course, Jed again! I love how you can see his breath in this shot.

 

 

Roan Landscape with Logo
The small space on the computer doesn’t do this uniquely-colored rescue horse justice, but I still like the shot.

 

Jed looking back
He is such a cool horse.

I’ve always loved a line-up of trees. These line the Sundown property.
