Green Mountain Curlies

Last week I made the drive to Vermont on a lovely springlike day only to be greeted the next day by fresh snow and howling winds. I stopped by to see the Curly Horses at Green Mountain Farm in Marshfield and am sharing this photo of the handsome stallion Beau. See the gallery here, and look at the curls in the little ones' ears!

In March I will be travelling down the East Coast from New York to Florida then up to Tennessee. Drop me an email at carien@imagequine.com, I am always seeking stock photo ops in the equine world. Have a great weekend!

More snow!

Yes, we have had lots of snow here this past winter. This photo is one of my Arab mares, Quinsz, in the snow with her buddies. With the recent warm up and the advent of longer days one can't help but feel hopeful that spring is just around the corner! Some more of my most recent winter images can be seen here.

I will be travelling down the East Coast from New York to Florida then up to Tennessee in the second half of March and will be looking for photo ops!

Winter Shoots

Last weekend I attended the annual Ice Harvest at Hanford Mills in East Meredith, NY. This photo was taken in 2004 when they still used a mule to score the ice. Unfortunately they no longer use the mule but it is still a fascinating event to witness. The blocks that are sawn from the ice are 17" think and weigh approximately 65# each. They are stored in an ice house and will last until December.
You can see more photos here.
I also attended a sleigh rally at the Winter Fest in Bainbridge, NY two weeks ago. Some very nice sleighs attended. You can see photos from that event here.
