Winsome Lady
Owned by Alyssa Bailey
“This photo stands out to me for a variety of reasons. It is difficult to photograph a black model horse. A black horse often competes for attention against dark background objects. Even dark shaded muzzles and black tails of lighter colored models often get ‘lost’ against the trees. This horse stands out in this environment as there is nothing black/dark colored to blend in with. The lighting is perfect as well, no overpowering glare from sunlight or flash to wash out details. You can see the shading. What shadow is on the ground is minimal, reducing distraction. The photo is pleasing to the eyes!”

Itchy
Owned by Allison Malone
“Itchy is a North Light yearling scratching foal. He is absolutely stunning. The photo is clear and taken at the perfect angle. He has gorgeous coloring. There were quite a few different versions of this model, but Itchy was by far the best. He stood out to me more then a few times. This is a model that I would love to own.”

Sirius Lee
Owned by Lisa Shepard
“Over and over this model stood out for me. He is a Rastus resin by Kitty Cantrell, that Lisa painted and haired herself. Conformationally, he is a nice model, but the paint and hair job make this model look real. There is a great deal of detail in the face and a wonderful dappling job on the body. I especially like the blended colors in the mane and tail, very realistic.”

2018 Judge's Choice
Touched By An Angel
Owned by Elizabeth Jones
“My favorite horse color is a roan. This gelding is a gorgeous red roan tobiano. The roaning in his coat is so well done. Roan is a hard color to hand paint and it looks like the artist spent a large amount of time painting each hair. The effect is very life like. Plus the addition of the realistic tobiano pattern and I’m in love!
The picture of him standing in a field is highly realistic. The background blends seamlessly with the foreground giving the illusion of a real horse. The lighting is wonderful. There are no dark spots, all parts of the horse are easy to see, and the picture is in clear, sharp focus. Both the model and the photograph are perfect!”

Lucille
Owned by Kimberley Jacobs
“There were a lot of horses that were shown fabulously well in every class they were shown in, so this was hard to choose. I ended up picking Lucille because this model was not only competitive in every single division instead of just one or two, she had several stand out entries along the way as well. The harness entry in particular was a great example of going above and beyond. Wonderful combination!”

“This is an outstanding example of showing a model to its best advantage. The slight angle gives him a commanding presence, while showing a bit of his face and expression. The blurred background is natural, with no distractions. The lighting brings out his rich color. The result is an eye-catching entry that stands out in the crowd.”
