Took this from a moving horse and cart believe it or not. Taken in alghero, italian island and lovely place. She looked like she spent all day looking and watching in her twilight years

Hi Dennis, well spotted, image nice and sharp considering that you were moving, I like your composition as it shows the surrounding area and not just the lady although my eye keeps moving around the image looking for anything else. I think she could do with a paintbrush to keep her busy

Hi Dennis, I too like this shot rustic and rural not touristy; well capture.

Speed definately not 70mph in Audi 6 on M6 cos you took the shot

Maybe that is the answer, sell that Audi and get a horse and cart And you will then get more photos.

I like the rustic feel to this. The colours are very pastel but still strong. Definitely a cut above the tourist shot. Well done.

Cheers guys, Len, Smoothie, Barry and Paul! I tried to look for things other people would not photograph on my cruise. did take some stock shots as it was a holiday after all. But i do like shots that mirror life as well. I envied her actually, because we are all to busy to just do this most of the time!

PS it was one of those horse and carriage jobs, however the funny thing was the carriage was electric so the horse didnt have to pull he was there for show! (animal rights had had a moan)

Here he is, looked quite happy to me
