I took a lot of photos this winter at Mahoney Eden Manor in Saratoga. In this post I will share my favorites. Click here to read previous posts featuring photos taken at the farm.
Just hours before the first foal of the season was born, Saratoga got a heavy dusting of snow, and I went out to the farm to photograph the mares.
