This is a photo that I took two days ago of a farmer while he was milking his goat. At the time of shooting the horse was watching us. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Comments by teegee on Wed, 04/11/07 11:12 a very pleasing and balanced triagular environmental portrait. your selective burning & dodging creates the illusion of depth. nice work. Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Wed, 04/11/07 12:10 Teegee said it all. Comments by Vladimir Vorobeychik on Wed, 04/11/07 12:19 A real art picture. Thank you for the excitement. Comments by Rafael Seibert on Wed, 04/11/07 13:14 As with so many of your pictures, the lighting is marvelous. Have you lit these scenes, or is the light natural. It hardly seem possible to find so many beautifully lit scenes. Nice work. -Raf Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Wed, 04/11/07 14:08 Once again the lighting is superb in the manner it highlights the man and two creatures with the viewer drawn to each in turn. There is a flow from the highlighted head of the horse to the goat and finally to the farmer milking the goat. A real slice of life feel to the composition helps to heighten its visual impact.

Huub Comments by Ian Griffiths on Wed, 04/11/07 17:31 the horse might be saying "Hi does anybody know where I can get a drink round here" a wonderfull shot Comments by Ernest Cadegan on Wed, 04/11/07 17:41 Wonderful environmental portrait. Great scene. Comments by Linda Frey on Wed, 04/11/07 21:03 Very pleasing. Both the horse and the goat seem more aware of the camera than does the man. ;-) Comments by Steve Owen on Wed, 04/11/07 22:21 Another wonderful image--you are a master of lighting! Comments by luis pereira on Thu, 04/12/07 04:50 Amazing lighting. It's very pleasanrt to look at. Simply beautiful. Comments by Rory Hudson on Thu, 04/12/07 05:59 Your usual superb control of light. I also like this for its humour, arising from the expressions on the two animals. Comments by barry weaver on Thu, 04/12/07 12:34 My photo of the day. Beautiful warm colouring like an old painting. Comments by Sans on Thu, 04/12/07 15:09 beautiful scene, great colors, love the goats expression too- excellent work! Comments by Maria Salvador on Fri, 04/13/07 18:19 Wonderful composition and light, great expressions of the animals, and the man concentrated on his work... Excellent is the word for me, also! Comments by Garry Schaefer on Sat, 04/14/07 22:33 Super! A very warm and heartening image. Who knew that goats were milked from behind? :-) Comments by Bob Buckles on Thu, 05/31/07 00:25 Nice lighting. Reminds me of the Dutch painter Vermeer. Comments by Alisha Hauser on Sun, 07/15/07 21:50 I love this picture. We raised dairy goats when I was growing up, and if I had milk ours from behind I do belive I would have had a hoof in my face! How do you get such wonderful pictures? Comments by Bahman Farzad on Sun, 07/15/07 23:12 These are great images. Keep at it. a wonderful series.
