Bob great job. I love how the horses are stacked with what looks like perfectly even spacing.

Great shot and great perspective on the strength of the animals and the surf. A simple shot grew into an analysis - I like that. As always, the composition of your shot is terrific. So good to have you back.

Bo Bob’s “2010”:  A real promotional image for Crescent Beach; your image really captures the mood of a relaxing afternoon in the sea air on well-trained, well-behaved mounts. There’s a real dynamic in the surf and lovely detail in the coats and trimmings of the horses in particular.  A little more separation between the horses would have enhanced the image as would “flatter” light but a nice image despite that.

Very nice Bob Y., it pays to be camera ready at all times. Yes, not much tweaking needed, but I would like to have seen a little more of the beauty of the land, water and sky. Perhaps you have another such picture. Never the less, it is still a good picture.

Ben Egbert

First impression, the person who took this has a love of the subject. The image does not look as mundane is it may because of the care in getting the horses and the people in a mood that says “carefree ride down the beach”. Sharp and well exposed. I might add some contrast in the water.

I reside in Methuen, MA, USA with my wife Alice.  We have two daughters, both married to engineers.  Each daughter has two children, one boy and one girl. 

I’ve been photographing for about 55 years as a hobby.  I retired from a government supplier in 2005.  My retirement plans included elevating my photographic talents now that I have the time to devote to it.  I learn something new about imaging every day and I think my images have improved.   I have been a member of the Merrimack Valley Camera Club for several years.  I recently joined a commercial studio called The SOPHA in Manchester, NH, USA, where I now have access to two studios and all kinds of lighting equipment.  I don’t have a preference as to a specialty genre however, I am leaning toward photojournalism and portraiture.
