Gower Pony

Gallery: Regional: UKNPPosted January 28, 201164 views6 comments
Taken on a cold, frosty morning on Fairwood Common, Gower, Wales.
Thanks to Paul Rosser for the guided tour :smile:

Nikon D3
Nikkor 200-400
1/1250th
f6.3
ISO 400
400mm
Using car as a hide.
Almost full frame, the pony was on a gradient so I did a slight rotation and cropped a minimum amount to square the edges.

That's a happy looking pony and enjoying the early morning sunshine by the look of it.
A fine subject in nice warm light.
