Shropshire White Horse
Posted By: Sunburn, 11-13-2019, 07:21 AM

A wet and cold morning up on the Shropshire hills this weekend, with a sunrise you could have put money on.
Broken cloud and a calm wind quickly changed to a driving weather front from the Welsh Valleys, that swept in and brought rain and snow.
Making our way back to the car for shelter I noticed a small gathering of horses making their way down from the higher ground in search of more comfortable temperature and conditions. Well worth getting a soaking for.

I hope you enjoy!

Very nice one, just like a oil painting by an artist,
The only regretful thing is that the poor horse looks unhappy

Hello Mike. Apologies for the very tardy reply. I did think I had reached out to all those who had shown an interest in a print. Sorry If I had missed you off the list. But yes, prints are now available if it is still of interest?

Regards
Geoff

Brilliant image and one that any raw amateur like me would count as their crowning achievement if they captured something so striking. Very well done!
