had to photograph a horse to make it look a saleable item? Hmmm. Not as easy as it seems. I have to feel for the person holding the lead as not only are they looking after the horse, they are also trying to make the horse look interested and intelligent. To do this, they are throwing their other arm up in the air, making clicking noises, waving their hat and basically trying to get the horse to look motivated and enthusiastic. No one wants to buy a horse with it's head down between its front legs... Evan and I have done all of the above (waving, clicking, making noises, using food), the whole bit. As a horse photographer, Iam a great Brain Surgeon!!! Poor Evan, however, as pictured, was certainly trying very hard to get Ringo (aka Ring Cycle) to look motivated and enthusiastic. With the words, "Dont print that picture will you?" being spoken - well, I had to show you guys what happens during a normal day at Massie Lodge right? LOL (Dont tell Evan ok?).
We have just been flat out these last few days. I have been neglecting my blog so that I can get the new Massie Lodge Website up and running. Well, its nearly finished.... and Iam sure that it will be well received by the internet masses. I promise to let you guys know of the unveiling date when we get closer to wrapping it up. I am very pleased with the new layout and its crisp and concise and will certainly give some of the other website's a run for their money. Watch This Space.
All the Massie Lodge residents are well and have nice rounded tummies. Wee Jimmy continues to leave his mother for the dry ladies paddock. His days are certainly numbered with his mother... as soon as Blotto (Telbon Lotto) goes to his new home (at the end of the week) and Sunny and Cindy go back to Rosie's paddock, Jimmy can be weaned. I think he will certainly upset the relationship between Billy and Max as he is pretty dominant (like his half brother Lenny). Oh well, Iam sure they will sort it out.
Bob (Centenn), Hamish (Sir Weather Vain) and Ringo (Ring Cycle) have settled in well together. Bob is still coming to terms with his hay. Hamish is still practicing for the Commonwealth Games (Bowl Discuss) and Ringo is in charge of... um, the three of them!
Flossie (Dodge/Wanchai Lady) has been branded and will be microchipped post haste after being a bit neglected at her previous address. Flossie's owner is thinking of naming her "Dodgey Lady" which I think is very cute. She certainly has come on and has put on a heap of weight and condition since coming to Massie Lodge.
Shortpants (Irish Royal / Turkish Trousers) is looking terrific except for her teenage warty bits .. she is looking more and more like her mother... um, minus the windsucking (thank goodness!) and the knobbly knees! She is really a delight to have around.
Cindy (Lightning Edge) and Sunny spent the day today being apprentice mower's around the house and did a fine job. Not that they need the extra weight of course! Its so nice having all this lush grass. We are certainly very blessed at the moment.
Well, time for me to rush off ... I still have some work on Gallopers website to finish. I promise to write soon.
Hooroo till then.
