He's enjoying the moment too. And I agree with Anthony... I think he'd love to have a camera.
Nicely done Richard.

Great point of view observing the horse, its stance is strong watching the sunset.

I love it, the horse seems transfixed by the setting sun, it must have been beautiful.

The direction of the horse and the placement of the sun is well chosen!

the horse really looks lost in thought, contemplating the sunset - who knows... i like the angle here - give a sense of the power of the animal.

Wonderful feeling of anticipation here. The longer I look, the more I expect the horse to start charging.

A very unusual moment captured. Kind of makes me think of some of those great '70s album covers. It's just so evocative.

Watching the day slip away . . makes for a very strong image.

lovely shot Richard - you are trusting to stand within reach of those hind quarters! I really like the composition and the fact that he is facing away from the observer, toward the sun. this is worth printing.
