An Overcast Morning

The other day I left home at 8 a.m. for a photo shoot. It was an overcast morning, lightly raining. Several years ago I snapped pictures in my sister-in-law's garden on an overcast morning and they came out great.

I was looking for blooming trees and I wasn't disappointed. I like the one above and below.

After an hour and a half, my mind brought up the horse farm we drove by a few days before. There were several foals in the field. I decided to stop by there and see if I could get permission to take some snaps.

What a time I had! I focused on two mares and their foals in a field to themselves. They really gave me a show! Following are some of the snaps I took.

I created two matted prints and four note cards a few days later and took them over to the farm to thank them for letting me take pictures. Later that day I received a nice email thanking me and telling me how much they liked them. But the thing that gave me the biggest smile was how she signed the email . . . sisters in Christ.

I'm sure glad I didn't let a rainy, overcast morning keep me away. What a thrill!
