And not just great photography but fabulous writing: "I have never had a horse but remember almost every time I have ridden, a fearless sack of potatoes bouncing on the poor animal's back wanting to run with it into cowgirl sunset."
It just a description of what an unskilled rider I am. Good riders move WITH the horse--they dont bounce like an inanimate object. as for lumpy bag of potatoes ... well ...
Horses are poetry in motion. One of natures finest gifts.
That is so true. Simply beautiful to watch
Beautiful and poignant. Always felt a kinship with horses
Thanks. "Kinship'" that's the perfect word.
Absolutely beautiful - both photos and prose!

Thanks John, especially welcome coming from you.
I object to "sack of potatoes" -- unsure if it's self-attack or self-acceptance.

Good heavens Terry, I agree with Amy Letter, your photos are perfection and it ain,t just happenstance!
Ah, but that helps. And thanks.
Horses are beautiful animals, but these are two of the most perfect photos of these beautiful animals I have ever seen. You have such an eye!
Thank you. That is VERY kind and appreciated.
