The horses of the Akhal-teke breed are famous for the golden shimmer of their coat. They are thoroughbreds (like English thoroughbreds and Arabians) and originate from Turkmenistan. The breed is thought to be over 2000 years old and is one of the very earlier horse breeds known.
this is the same image as “evening gold”, uploaded yesterday, but with a different background. It’s normally a massive job to remove backgrounds from horse portraits because of blending in the mane and whiskers. So, well, it’s an experiment. Feedback welcome!
