Went along to Rockingham on Saturday, it's been a while since I've taken photos of horses so thought I'd take the camera along to see what I could do... and to be honest I struggled a bit! When I looked through the photos when I got home I was a bit disappointed as the colours seemed a bit flat, the whites seemed too white yet the darks were too dark, and the focus seemed off on a few (probably down to user error, although it was on AF).
All taken with a Canon 400D and Sigma 70-300mm lens.
I've played around with them a bit, tried to knock the highlights back a bit, bring the shadows up and strengthen the colours without making them look overly played with.
See what you think, comments/advice welcome!
#1 - f/4.5, 1/320, ISO 200, aperture priority (I'm guessing the obvious mistake here is the angle as you can't see the pole)

#2 - f/5.6, 1/640, ISO 200, shutter priority (should have notice bright yellow JCB in the background! Shame as I like the effort the horse is putting in here!)
