I took a year or two of photography in high school (I'm 44 now) and shot b/w film on a fully manual Nikon then. Haven't done anything since then. I don't have any particular secret other than being a sponge for knowledge. I have taken every workshop and seminar that was within my budget since I started and study everything possible every single day and shoot, shoot, and shoot some more. I joined a photography group too and also have a good friend who is a great photographer. I can be quite obsessive about things that I really enjoy I guess. The horse stuff came naturally to me since I used to ride, actually at the same barn that I'm the OP for now. And the dogs are the same, I have been showing, racing, and breeding dogs since the mid 80's. I'm a terrible perfectionist and if I compare an image of mine to somebody who is an exceptionally talented icon of those types of images I am obsessed with making mine at least as good. Still working on it.
We have the same disease, Julie. I, like you, cannot get enough information about whatever it is I decide that I love and want to be good at. I just joined here last week myself.
From one forum "newbie" to the next, welcome.
Number 2 is stunning. The color composition is gorgeous. I love number 4 as well. What a capture... great timing!
