Description
When God wanted to create the horse, he spoke to the south wind: 'From you I wish to create a being in honour of my saints, in humiliation of my enemies and to the benefit of all who are devoted to me'. The south wind spoke: 'Do that, my Creator'. Thereupon God took a handful of south wind and created the horse. Then he spoke to the horse: 'Your name is Arabian, may the good be bound to the curl of your forehead, the spoils to your back. Your owner I have made into your friend. I have favoured you above all other beasts of burden. I have given you the power to fly without wings, in offensive attack or in retreat. I wish to set men on your back who praise and worship me'.
(Arabian Myth of Creation)

I've always loved the Arabian Myth of Creation, ever since I read it in one of my horse photography books. So, I thought I'd make something to represent it at least somewhat. I hope you enjoy!

And sorry if this seems rather blah. I kinda just threw it together in one day.
