Nice Image - Like the background haze - Shame the focus is on the two guys behind not the guy in the front which is a little distracting.Composition is a little awkward too with the guy on the right cut off I can see though this would have meant less tank which adds - Tough choice but nice colours

This was my favourite. That is some horse, spit flying, chest muscles, crimped or unbraided mane flying and that look out from underneath it, well it just isn't something you forget. Many beautiful horses and beautiful pictures of horses in this challenge, but this one says "horse" in the most powerful way, and part of that is because he/she is being ridden.... (Just a little annoyed at all the rider comments).

Beautiful and powerful animal! In my opinion may have worked better without the rider.

It would have enhanced this fabulous photo if the rider would have been dressed to match the regalness of this very regal horse IMO

The horse is fantastic - the motion - the mane - it's only a pity that the rider doesn't look more engaged. Your bw tones are excellent.

Wow! Hope to see you on the front page. So much details on the horse. The guy would have greatly added to the compo if he had another look (medieval, cowboy, etc.) 8
