Congratulation Sharon on your beautiufl portrait was hoping to see this with a ribbon, he has won plenty ribbons on his own. :) Great work.

Nice portrait, beautiful subject. Good angle to show the profile, width between the eyes (both characteristics of this breed of horse). Love that you caught the "catch light" in the eye.

Something about the lower lip bothers me; I'm left wondering if the horse was in the process of licking, or if it may have a slight underbite?

Great shot of a beautiful Arab .. would have been even better if the depth of field had been greater.

LIghting is fabulous! Love how the light shines and picks up all the highlights in the horse's rich reddish brown coat. This horse gets proper grooming and his coat just gleams. That rich red/brown tone is beautiful and the lighting plays it up well. Composition is good for it captures the main subject well and is a well done portrait style that showcases this beautiful animal. Nice DOF with the backdrop of greens blurred such that the horse can visually pop off of it's environment. Focus is nice and sharp on the main subject so that the viewer can fully appreciate all the lovely details of this horse. Well done.
