I saw this quite a while ago in an ad. I think it's hilarious and a poor choice of pics to put in an ad. It might come up small, I hope you can see it.

Really nice looking horses (well the last three). I wonder how much they will go for? Sounds like a fun auction to go to just to see some nice horses.

Oh, Maximus is stunning, wasn't keen on the last one, looked too short backed and I have a thing about greys!

NHG - the only thing I don't care for in the three you posted were their first pictures. It just seems like they copied and pasted the horse on the backgrounds and it is much too easy to photoshop a picture like that. But yes, those three and the three Apollo posted are very well marketed and it's great to see some action shots.

What I liked MM was that they were great conformation shots and the horses looked nice in them, they really caught my eye. So often people have shots in the field where the horse isn't even brushed and isn't standing nicely and they don't show well. It makes me feel like the owners don't care and then why should I care? And it tells me very little. If a horse is broke I want to see a riding shot and I don't want to see one where the horse looks annoyed or fractious and has it's head up and ears back and the rider is looking down at the horse and looks angry and might even be yanking on the reins. Most ads have crappy pictures and it's hard to get past that when shopping.

Oh, Maximus is stunning, wasn't keen on the last one, looked too short backed and I have a thing about greys! I'll take the grey, heck, they are all perfect horses in every way, wouldn't matter which one, huh? Wouldn't it be great if those horses really were as wonderful as the ad? What I want to know is, will I be able to keep that horse that wonderful once I got him home? Those sellers are the kind who ride all day, how many folks do that? The folks with the big bucks, that's who, if they don't they hire trainers to ride and show. Okay, got off on a little rant, there sorry LOL That girl hanging off the hind end of her horse is a bit odd, I think there is a better way to show how good natured he is than that! :-) |
