Step Forward

Connemara is as you know famous for both its scenery and of course the Connemara pony. I was recently returning from photography trip to Connemara with a fellow photographer who had booked me for a day's photographic tuition . We had had a very succesfull trip and were returning home having just photographed a lovely sunset over Killary Harbour. Even though the sun had left the sky and it was getting dark, the sight of these two ponies across the harbour stopped us in our tracks, I did a Uturn in the car back to a gate into a field so that I could pull the car off the road. We then spent what seemed like an age waiting for the pony at the back to just take a step or two forward so as not to be hidden by the one at the front ! Eventually it obliged!
