Snowy Horses
Feb 4, 2013
In 2008, Texas native Jennifer Zeller accepted a position marketing Quarter Horses on now-husband Zach Ducheneaux’s ranch. Says Zeller, “When I got there, Zach handed me an older model Canon DSLR and said, ‘Go nuts. You’ve got to learn to take good photos of the horses anyway!’” Zeller draws from a mixed media background when composing photos on their ranch 55 miles east of Eagle Butte.

Horses are naturally able to adapt to cold and snowy weather. -
They can actually raise and lower their coat in order to warm or cool themselves. -
On cold days, horses may appear fluffier. -
When horse hair lifts, it creates a natural insulation and traps warm air against the skin. -
Wind and blanketing can interfere with this ability.
