Colorful Utah Desert – Onaqui Herd – Wild Horses of Utah

Here are some photographs I took this spring when the Utah Desert was as colorful as I have ever seen it.  The Onaqui herd seemed to be in great shape, with foals just starting to be born.  To see the desert now, you would never believe it was this colorful.  The plant that is such a brilliant orange is called Globe Mallow or desert mallow.  It is native to Utah.

I recently put together a photography book of over 50 images of this wonderful herd of wild horses in Utah.  It turned out AWESOME.  If anyone is interested in purchasing one, let me know.

These are some of the images in the book.  Enjoy…

Latest Photography of Wild Horses – Onaqui Herd – Utah Wild Horses

Here are some photographs of wild horses from my latest visit to the Onaqui Herd.  As you can see from photograph 17, one of the colts has broken its leg some time ago.  A person I ran into last week said the break is 1  1/2 years old.  The colt seems to be able to keep up with the herd, and seems quite healthy.  I have included photographs of a small family band that seems to keep to itself, never integrating with either large herd in the area.  That band has a new pinto foal that has very beautiful markings, and a lot of white.  All of my wild horse photography is available for purchase.  I can also print custom (5×7) folding “thank-you cards”, calendars, mouse pads etc.  All photographs are available in full color or can be tinted to your liking.  I print on Epson archival paper or canvas using Epson archival inks.
