I sit astride life like a bad rider on a horse.
I only owe it to the horse’s good nature
that I am not thrown off at this very moment.

I like the colors of this photos. They got a nice glare…
Thank you so much Bjorn, it’s from the presets of OnOne in Lightroom. 🙂
Such beauties! We had horses growing up…I miss being around them!
You have got to figure out how to get close to them again. Life is too short!
Stunning animals, you did a wonderful job
Thanks Ali ! I was birding and the horses kept coming up to me to see what I was up to.
Great photos of one of my favorite photo subjects. Thanks for sharing!
It is my pleasure, my kindred spirit.
Horses are certainly special creatures.
The more I spend time with them, the more I realize how special they really are.
Every barn needs a cat, to keep the horses in line.
And to keep the mice at bay. 🙂
a superb set of pictures…
Thank you so much!
Really wonderful photos… 🙂
Thank you Drake ! It was a great day on the farm.
Wonderful shots!!!
Thank you so much Rexlin.
Tremendous scenes from the barn Emily!
Thanks Phil ! Truly do appreciate your kind words.
I love seeing your horses, they are happy, content and healthy. Beautiful photography!
LOL ! And perhaps a bit spoiled? They are such generous creatures. Thank you for your compliment Mary.
WONDERFUL images…. And oh my, I have NEVER seen that quote!! Sending…to…mom…. NOW! I love. I love. I LOVE!
Isn’t that great ! It was perfect for that day as Remy decided to spook sideways at the canter that day and I nearly lost it. Grabbed the mane and was grateful I had girthed the saddle tight before leaving the barn.
Ohhhhhhh my!!! A nice strong spook at the canter is ALWAYS fun!! See what you did? You manifested it, hahahah!! 🙂 YAY you stayed on!
Oh yes… So many stories of girths just not being…tight…enough.
Hay, thank you for catching my attention. Is that you Remy?
Finally answering you back – nope, none of these are Remy. The first one is her girlfriend though – Sera. I posted a pic of Remy today – really just for you. 🙂
