Majestic Clydesdales: Sonoma County Photos Of The Week

SONOMA, CA — Just a block from historic downtown Sonoma Plaza is the home of several majestic Clydesdale horses. Generations of the Clydesdales have been raised on the property and when they are brought out from the barn for feeding, they never fail to attract a crowd. Thanksgiving week, local photographer Al Francis was in the area and captured photos of young Clydesdales as well as full-grown ones.

"They are very friendly and come up to the fence to have their noses rubbed," he said. "One horse had red lipstick left on his nose when a Sonoma woman gave the young horse a kiss."

Thanks so much for sharing these photos, Al!

It's Your Shot: Pictures You Take and We Share

Have you got the next incredible photo? If you have an awesome photo of nature, breathtaking scenery, kids caught being kids, a pet doing something funny or something unusual you happen to catch, we'd love to feature it on Patch. We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty that is the North Bay, and that show off your unique talents.

So, bring 'em on. Not selfies. Not here.

Send your photos to autumn.johnson@patch.com and we'll post the feature on an occasional basis. Or — post it for free in our bulletin board section on the site, and we'll feature it up top. Be sure to also include when and where the shot was taken and any other details about what was going on.
