I know about the weak title... :(

Someone did suggest "Pale Rider" and this is what I now use when I post this picture, it won POTD on BestFoto under this title.

Great use of negative space. The icy colors of horse and sky give this photograph a feeling of winter.

Striking portrait indeed. Sensitively processed and well composed (if a little too far left). Don't like your title though, which is too flippant for your high quality photo.
