She is truly a black beauty ...

... in our opinion. But look self .

We have made this pictures during the last sunny days in Purnuvaara, when the sunset began and the forest was captured in warm light.
Its the perfect time to make some great pictures - it´s called the "blue hours".
One of the best things here in North Scandinavia is, that this "blue hours" is at least 3 hours long.
Even for the slowest photographer enough time to make at least ONE good shot ;-)

Some pictures we made also during noon, the light is much harder and the difference is significant visible.

This beautiful lady was born June 2003 and is right now in a great shape.
We are riding between 4-6 times every week and the tours are between 1,5 and 3 hours up and down riding in different terrain. We have now around 30 km of groomed riding trails and endless trails in the forest around Purnuvaara.

She is really flexible .. and not like me ...
I have already big problems to tie my shoes ...

A sunbeam into her hair ... 

Her father is ...

Askur från Håkansgården and he  is one of the worlds greatest breeding- and competition stallions ... and the first swedish born Elite stallion.

Maybe she has much more potential than we know ... but important is that she has a good life - with or without competition. 

It is much fun to photograph Tinna, she looks sometimes a little bit absent - maybe she is chilling - but with the right light at the right place, a good background and some patience she is absolutely worth to be pictured. She is a very nice lady and has a strong herd bond, she can not stay alone. Good is, that she likes the dogs and feels also good when we are out 

together ( human, dogs and horses ) in the woods. 

We are really excited to see how she will come along with Ida and Järnvilja - next week, when we have the big family reunification :-)

And more horses are coming in the near future - the future sounds good for all of them. 

It´s no horse ! Believe it or not ...

A dog - attacking a creepy wood stick in the water .
We have pictured also other animals ...
