    Silver Goes Out to Play.

    Silver 3 26

    Saturday March 28, 2026.

    It is early spring in Montana; At 4,580 feet elevation, we don’t count on warm days for at least another month. All of our horses are still pretty fuzzy.

    There was a lot going on Saturday morning; we had not planned to take photos. After a brief visit with the shedding blade, Silver was turned loose to play. Even in his dusty winter pjs, this magnificent Morgan stallion looks amazing.

    Respected trainers have told us, “Your horse does not love you.”

    We believe otherwise.

    How to capture striking images of a horse:

    No time for fancy grooming before turn-out?

    No one on hand who has any formal training in photography?

    Can’t, at the moment, afford a Creative Cloud subscription, and haven’t worked out what to make of Affinity yet?

    No worries!

    Just find a one-in-a-million black Morgan stallion playing in the sunshine on a beautiful, early spring day, and hold the shutter down. Chief is so beautiful, he’ll make you look good.

    Here is himself, playing in the arena.
