Neal R Thompson MD	Wow! Great image, handled well. The light vignette, works well with this image and the gradations of shades on the horse are perfect. Love it.
John Roach	I like the image of the horse and the overall feel. The immediate ground grasses is nice, but am a little distracted by the blur I suspected created by the vignetting and the lack of some detail in the background. However, that is more personal taste then a criticism.
Martha Mitchem	I like what you did. The only thing I can see would be the possibility softening down the white flowers especially under his belly, and those at the end of the tail.
Sol Blechman	The horse is well placed and there is just enough detail in the meadow to anchor it in the frame. This minimalist and simple technique makes a very strong impact.
Shahron Williams von Rooij	The cropping and vignetting give an oil portrait look to this image. Nicely done.
Mohamed Terzaki	The horse is a magical animal and you added romance to its photo. The hair of the tail is well handled and the look inside the frame balance the photo.

Dennis Hirning, EPSA - Biography I have lived in Montana for most of my life, and now live in Billings. I always enjoyed taking snapshots but I got more serious about photography during the Seattle World's Fair. A friend of mine had a 35mm camera and could do so much more than I could with my Brownie Hawkeye so I had to get one for myself. After a period of using an Exacta and Canon equipment, and I helped support my habit with a few weddings and other photographic exploits along the way, In the 1990's my need to work to eat got in the way of a lot of my photography. I got back into it when I got a Canon Digital Rebel in 2004 and I haven't looked back since. I now use a Canon 40D with a couple of "L" lenses. I am a member of several camera clubs as well joining PSA again in 2004. I have a degree in math that I really haven't used, and my love for computers goes way back. Now I mainly use Photoshop CS5 for my digital work.
