    Wow. I love it. Look at that appy. Big and strong. Excellent capture. Instant fav! This would also go good in Equine Art and Photography, Simply Horses, Appaloosa and Sotted Horses/Ponies/Mules, and Animals In Action just to name a few.

    Very glorious shot of those amazig creatures, Arla. Welcome home! It’s better to stay here rather than leave. :)

    Travel is good … sometimes it just gives someone a much greater appreciation for what they have at home. :)

    I know how you must, Gene … I so admire your work with the horses, and your experience has made me appreciate their presence here even more … if that is possible?
