Fire Lane: a pencil of a ho[r]se

From posts I've read, I know what and where the pencil is, so I guess you sure meet the challenge. Artistically it doesn't appeal a whole lot to me because of the drab colors with little contrast other than the little bit of red. I do like the cobblestones. Between that and the horse it has a bit of an old fashioned feel. Technical merit...well, as I mentioned not enough contrast to make the subject pop...no pun intended...and the focus is a little soft.

Ahhhhhh the addition of colored pape is a very good idea! It adds drama to the image in a simple and basic way. Very nice! Grayce...aka...Gracious
