The graphics here are tuly commanding, Susie, with the strong framing of the square stable opening, the bright outdoor light, and the superb sheen on the horse's coat glowing from the shadows. #8818480Donna La Mattino Pagakis August 10, 2010

Outstanding capture, Susie -- HTD! #8820086Nikki McDonald August 11, 2010
Wonderful capture, Susie -- you have created a winner. The composition is so very strong, the exposure is perfect and the details and texture of the horse make you want to reach out and touch him. Well done -- making it a favorite. #8820228Amanda D. Austwick August 11, 2010
Oh Susie, I am such a horse lover, and this looks like a really lovely horse. His coat is so shiny, and he reminds me a bit of my bay horse I had when I was younger. Lovely entry! #8820784Susie Peek-Swint August 11, 2010

Many thanks Lynn and John for your lovely comments :) #8823375Nikki McDonald August 13, 2010
I sincerely hope you pay way more attention to the wonderful comments and to the many votes you have gotten on this wonderful image than to the fact that it was skipped for an EP. Pop it right back in there next month, Susie! #8827229Susie Peek-Swint August 13, 2010
Many thanks Nikki for your support and encouragement ... I am disappointed and thought perhaps this one is too dark? I will try it again later though ~ cheers, susie #8827272Nikki McDonald September 12, 2010
