Stock Photos of Heavy Horse Pull

Heavy Horse Pull. A new set of stock photos by Ernie Hunter Here is a well manored team of Belgian Draft Horses. As they approach the loaded Stone Boat they are totally under control. They back into place and the hook is placed in the ring. The heel chains are slack and there is no dancing about. When they are given the word to pull they snap the front of the Boat clear for a Good Break. Their feet work in unison to give the greatest amount of pulling power. The heavy corked shoes dig in, throwing great amounts of dirt and dust into the air. Good draw. View more stock photography from Ernie Hunter here.

Aerial Views of Outback South Australia. A new set of stock photos by Kim House Every Tourist should experience a flight over the ever-changing scenery of South Australia's north. With its open spaces, providing a different perspective to the size of our great vast land, including the largest farm to the smallest town, William Creek. An Artist's delight, patterns portrayed by the salt bed of Lake Eyre and its beauty after the floods, dry meandering streams and trees waiting for the next rainfall while hills eroded by desert winds paint rainbows across the landscape.

New Photo Stock Images of Reflections

Reflections. A new set of stock photos by Ernie Hunter Here are some different reflections.The image we see in the cars rear view mirror. Powder snow on the bushes and trees lining Tannery Creek in Fulton NY. The reflection of the Recycle Plant, usually not a pretty site, on the water in the morning mist. A sail boat cutting through the reflection of the Minetto Bridge over the Oswego River or a dingy moored in the harbour. Maybe it's some aquatic plant in the morning light or the river framed by trees. Reflections are all around us we need to look! View more stock photography from Ernie Hunter here.

New Photo Stock Images of The Eyes Have It.

The Eyes Have It.. A new set of stock photos by Darcie Strobach I have always been fascinated with what lies in the eyes of a horse. It is not just seeing their soul, although that goes a long way on its own. The structure of the eye itself is unreal. Some of the shots you will see here show the light coming through the eye and light the internal structure of the eyeball. It is always so interesting to me how sometimes it can look like the underside of a mushroom , almost petal like. I hope you enjoy the detail. View more stock photography from Darcie Strobach here.

New Photo Stock Images of Praying Mantis

Praying Mantis. A new set of stock photos by Ernie Hunter The Praying Mantis has huge compound eyes mounted on the triangular, almost alien-like head.The ability to turn their head 180 degrees gives them excellent vision and hearing. Waiting patiently for many moments when their prey is close enough they grab with lightning speed, clamping it in vice-like front legs and eating it alive. Females will sometimes eat the Male after mating. Females lay eggs in an ootheca egg mass in fall and they hatch in the following spring. Food is usually small insects.

New Photo Stock Images of Italian Chapel Lamb Holm - Orkney Islands

Italian Chapel Lamb Holm - Orkney Islands. A new set of stock photos by Michaela Perryman The chapel was constructed during WWII from Nissen huts joined end-to-end. The corrugated interior was then covered with plasterboard and the altar and altar rail were constructed from concrete. Most of the interior decoration was done by Domenico Chiocchetti who painted the sanctuary end of the chapel and fellow-prisoners decorated the entire interior. They created a front facade out of concrete, concealing the shape of the hut and making the building look like a church. All hand painted. View more stock photography from Michaela Perryman here.
