Marilyn - We bathed and groomed several horses on Monday(Oct. 5th) and had Robin Dean(professional photographer) take pictures of Jaz, Sarah, Prince, and Peppy. We all had a great time during the "photo shoot."
Robin captured each horse's personality and beauty in every shot. She also digitally edited some photos to animate the mood of the picture, they are stunning!
Here is a link to an album of the finished pictures by Robin Dean...
