I have more pictures than I could imagine what to do with. Though its mainly because I have gotten distracted while at the horse rescue by either taking portraits of my friend for her mom to print out and hang on the fridge, or the sheer thrill of trying to take pictures of the horses as they run all over with spring fever, and taking pictures of that instead of my project. Everyone is still pretty filthy, even though we did go out with brushes these kids needs a hose or something!
So far I have 4 pigments on the page (Bay, Chestnut, Dapple Gray, and Roan) Though the roan is the only one in the format that I want it. Where there is a thumb of a focused point.. I am in the process of putting text on 4 more (Appaloosa, Paint, Palomino, and Silver Dapple) and than I still have to find a good picture out of my stock of oh.. 500 pictures of a good gray (which looks white) a black (without too much bleaching) and edit those.
As for the service part, the last few times we have gone out there, the owner Mary, had already gotten the chores done. So this last time we didn't know a head of time. So we just swept the isle and than picked up the trash around the pastures. I learned twice that the fence was on (which it usually isnt) due to that had a close contact with what I hope was mud, but I know it was 90% not.
I really could use some feedback on the website, since my roommate has no idea what I am going on about half the time.
and that is http://fadedoak.com/uwsp/project.htm
Also the pictures included are are Shakira, who decided to roll in what we are going to call mud, you can see on her inner leg and her face what color she SHOULD be, but isnt. There is also a picture of the farm from the road, its only one of the pastures, theres about 30 horses there or so. (PS, the on lying down is not dead, he just enjoys sunning himself) The pictures of the horses running are of the two new rescues, they are both untrained, and nearly ran me over. The cat is patches, who is just as much as this project as any of the horses, she will jump up into your arms if you want her to or not. That little dent in her fur is where she burned her head on a lamp. Shes not the smartest thing...

Sounds like you are having a lot of fun in helping out at the horse rescue. It is always nice to have someone help you to take care of all those horses and I am sure it takes a load off her feet. I like the pictures that you've posted and are able to identify what kind of horses they are. Keep on doing the good work!
