Photos of Horses (Shadai Stallion Station)

Recently, I have photographed some horses in a breeding facility, known as Shadai Stallion Station (社台スタリオンステーション Shadai Sutarion Sutēshon), that I found when searching for a cow farm.
Initially, this is the kind of picture (or probably video or timelapse) that I intend to capture:
A bunch of Holstein cattle walks on a hill of meadow, with green grass and yellow flowers (the dandelion flower), against a blue sky with white clouds; To me, these are the elements that make a perfect picture. Sadly though this one is cropped from a snapshot I made while in a car drove by a friend (on the way back from this trip). So the resolution is very small.

Well, back to the horse story, there were more different postures from the horses this time compared to the one at Urakawa. At least they are not so busy eating, but to run around probably because of to the present of the small horses that are very energetic.
You may not believe it but all photos were actually taken through the fence like the one below. Well this is a kind of magic in photography - when you shoot with a telephoto lens any objects that are really close to the lens become invisible.
