Yearlings, by Mike Parr

Mike Parr is our chosen photographer for this Monday's Digital Photography Now Picture of the Day. Mike's other half is an enthusiastic equestrian, so Mike gets to see horses quite frequently. The image selected today is one of a collection in Mike's gallery that tells the story of some young horses frolicking under the late summer sun. You can see a discussion thread in the forum on the same subject. The lively sense of free spirit in the yearlings comes across nicely. In this particular shot the dark horse in the foreground clearly has its eye on Mike's lens! This is much more than a focus on a single image, so I do encourage you to look at the others Mike took.

Would you like one of your pictures featured on DPNow's POTD?

We are always on the look out for great pictures posted to the user-galleries here on DPNow. POTDs are selected from the gallery and featured every week day. The gallery facility here is completely free; all you need to do is register as a user on our discussion forum and you will get an automatic 25MB of space, which is good for around 125 pictures uploaded at web resolution, about 200K per picture. At the time of writing we had over 13,000 pictures on the galleries and it's well worth a browse.

Picture of the month

At the end of each month we will select our favourite image of the month and declare a Picture of the Month.

The DPNow Golden Gallery

Our ultimate accolade, the DPNow Golden Gallery, is reserved for what we feel are the very finest images. We invite anyone to submit their pictures for inclusion in the Golden Gallery. Why not have a look at the Golden Gallery submission form? The vast majority are usually rejected, which is why we feel that the ones we do feature are extra special.
