My latest adventure took me to the eastern shores in Maryland/Virginia. I really wanted to see the Chincoteague Ponies on Assateague Island.  It was a wonderful trip, and the ponies did not disappoint!  I hadn't realized that my timing was perfect to see the new foals - the ones you will see in the photos here were all under 1 week old at the time I photographed them.

These next two photographs were taken on the Maryland side of Assateague Island.  The ponies are managed differently here.  I was proud of myself for locating this first pony.  Once she retreated, I headed in the direction she went.  

Little did I know right around the bend was the beach & parking area where they decided was a better place to hang out. 

All photographs were taken with a Canon 5DM2 or 6D with a Canon EF 24-70mm 2.8L USM or EF 70-200 f2.8L IS II USM +2x
