Fighting wild Koniks horses (#1)
Extradordinary - I've not seen that species before! And to catch them frolicking! Nice work!

Very good capture. A slightly slower shutter speed would have conveyed some of the motion.

@Streetlights: You're quite right, but it went all so fast that I didn't have time to adjust the camera settings.
I've never seen wild horses either! Great capture of that beautiful rearing pose.

Great shot! I looked up these horses on the net, seems they're native to Poland which is why I had never seen them before.

@DTW: I didn't know they were originally from Poland. In 1985 they introduced them in the area, 20 at that time and they are now with around 950. They don't get food so I guess there is plenty for all of them.
Merci de votre passage chez-moi. Vos photos me plaisent beaucoup, bonne continuation!

@Colour blind: It was obvious they were annoyed with each other so we stayed a while to see what was happening but it al started really fast after stopping the car. I think we were lucky. Wait for the next ones, they get even better.
Marvelous shot! Great timing and a wonderful capture.
