This is a nice photograph. The horse has a lovely expression. I like the greenery in the background since it offers some nice contrast to your horse's coat color making your horse pop. I think if you increased the saturation and contrast of this photo slightly, it would help make the picture stand out. The dirty shavings/manure piles in the background are a bit distracting from the main subject, although sometimes those pesky piles end up being inconveniently placed in the frame of that great photogenic moment you see. I like the photo and the horse's expression and stance, although some of the lighter browns and tans in the background don't offer quite as much contrast to the lower half of the horse as one might like (especially with how well the greenery in the background compliments and makes the horse pop). I've been staring at your horse's feet for awhile since it's been bugging me. Are your horse's feet a bit long? It might just seem that way from the combination of the angle and the fact that the ground and the dust from the ground on the hooves makes the hooves blend into the ground a bit. If they're not, I don't mean any insult by it, it just kept distracting me.
I like the photo, I just think with some slight adjustments it could be pop a bit more and really catch a hold of viewers. Great capture of a lovely expression. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/a/a… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="349" title="Aww"/>
