I underexposed the image by almost 4EV to black out the detail in this New Forest pony, and leave just firey rim lit silhouette as it grazed in the golden sunset. The trick here was to try and retain a little detail in the surrounding grasses as they go off in to the distance, which proved tricky to porcess as I've viewed on three monitors now and on two it looks great but on the third it's almost gone. So hopefully it looks ok for you on your own screen with a little grass detail in the background.
