Its a nice shot for sure, but the lighting isnt that hard to see. You have horses and trees in the foregroung in soft light, thats either skylight or shade from a cloud most likely. Then in the far background you have the near background in the shade, most likely a cloud, and the far background in direct sunlight. You can do it again, but mother nature would have to co-operate and you would have to wait for conditions to duplicate, I can tell you right now, it wont be fast or easy to do.

Yeah, that's why I didn't post it as a "show off" shot. There's just something about the light/color that I really like. Unfortunately, I can't quite place what it is. Apparantly nobody else sees it, to tell me what I did. I've heard it said that the only thing worse than making a mistake, is getting something right and not knowing why. > > So I quit horse show photography and whats the first paw/peso i > see.:-) :) -- The fastest way to get your question answered on the net is to post the wrong answer.
