The Story | I passed these horses on this hill at sunrise going up the 87 out of Phoenix. I pulled over as fast as I could, and had to back up 1/4 of a mile on the shoulder to get closer, so scary haha. All my camera gear was packed away, so it took me 5 min to get it all out. The ranch entrance was about 100 ft behind me and a woman pulled in as I was scrounging in my car, she yelled at me from the drive way to ask me if I was okay. Gosh, I wish more than ever I would have ran over to ask if I could visit her horses. But I was embarrassed and yelled back that I was fine 🙈 a lesson learned. I got this one shot. I’ll take it. They were stunning and gave me all the little girl feels of loving horses and wishing I was out there with them. .Next time, I won’t let myself down. 🥹 I will be braver and take those tiny opportunities, no matter what. .#horseloversofinstagram #horsephotography #ranchlife #ranchphotography #arizonalandscape #sunriselandscape #sunriselight #ilovesunrises #quietluxury #roadtripvibes #roadtripphotography #natgeoyourshots #momaphotoclub #visitarizona #desertlandscape #naturephotography #landscapephotographymagazine .Road Trip Photography | Little Magical Moments | Horses at Sunrise | Sunrise Arizona Landscape | Solo Travel Content | Quiet Moment Photography | Travel Photo Essay | Nature Photography by @laura.apotropaic
