I would love to know the story behind this image. Beautifully done. I especially like the moody, rainy day atmosphere portrayed here.

I like that you chose to center the hind hooves rather than his bum.

You want a classic novel? I don't need no classic novel. I like the in your face image but there's no association with the modern novel as far as I can tell. Image could be a 6 in another challenge. Here its only a 5.

I am not a border police, and in fact I often use top and bottom black borders myself. Though I wouldn't do it in a challenge about novels. I was looking forward to portrait images that may work out well as book covers. But that's probably just me.

I would have set the focus range up to the eyes and applied selective gaussian to the corners with distracting elements.

5 from me.

I haven't read the novel, but read up a little bit about it. Not sure if this portrays the novel well, as I understand it to be quite a weird, dark and violent work. From me 5
