Forgive me for starting out with by being critical, but the second one is the weakest of the bunch. The girl's face and light blue riding apparel seem a bit blown out to me (maybe it's my monitor?) and quite frankly, the photo itself seems pretty ordinary to me. MInd you, maybe in concert with the others it works, but as a stand-alone, it doesn't turn my crank. That bit of unpleasantness aside, I think the other three are absolutely gorgeous!! The first one they seem to have the same expression on their faces (it's the eyes). Tremendous shot! Great emotion in the third photo - how can one resist such a beautiful girl with such a beautiful smile!! I'm smiling myself, just looking at it! And the fourth one is just as good. You've managed to communicate to us the bond between her and that lovely animal. Very well captured. Great stuff, Cotty. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
