Gene's Mares

This is a quickie effort from today. About 45 minutes spent out in the wind in a hooded sweatshirt hunkered up against one of our sheds in the backyard. These horses live next door ( we live right on the edge of our small town. ) Of course, the animals don't know enough to stand still and that makes for a challenge along with all the other attendant plein air obstacles. But, it is to be considered a learning experience and it's especially good to be getting out now that the weather is beginning to warm.
