Amber Eyes by

“Watching this pretty pony’s sweet face kept me enthralled for a very long time. His curiosity was amusing and he actually liked to pose for me. He kept me company in the golden afternoon hours, offering me his pretty profile and luxurious mane playing with the wind. I could capture many instances of his facial expressiveness.

Here, the pony’s mane brushes the wind while a spark of sheer amber arises from the inquisitive eye. Luscious eyelashes in a fiery copper hue frame the sweet glance of this quiet friend. A true delight of natural beauty"
