Sunday Stills

Ed gave us free rein this week, a potluck of whatever we found interesting to share. I chose beauty, wherever I found it;in the way the mountains look like they are floating on a sea of cotton wool in the early morning;

in the curve of the clouds laying heavy in the valley at sunrise,

in the joy of watching the mares play in the snow;


silly, frivolous fillies!

I deliberately upped the contrast in these photos to make them more interesting.
But my favorite photo of this week is a portrait of Belle, this is the mama to Janice's filly Jazz, and Kai. She's in foal again, and I'm really looking forward to the next baby!
I think I found plenty of beauty this week; hope you enjoyed my potluck.
