....cuss words. Often pictures simply don't tell the real story. This peculiar pose makes Red Feather appear to have a long, weak back. That could not be further from the truth. He has a short back with real power shown in his topline. Head on picutres can be the very worst--making a horse look bucket headed, long and thin.
I love equine photography but one must see many pictures of a horse to know what the horse really looks like.
I actually intended to post the next picture I took of him, I had a lower point of view, deeper horizon and his head was up instead of diving for a horse fly.
ReplyDeleteThat picture makes him look twice as big and more muscular. Thank goodness he is not. Little fellow is a handful as it is.
Any person who does not understand the concept of "wary respect," is cordially invited to come and spend time with Red Feather. He is a sweet horse,and gentle, but then, there is a such thing as a sweet, gentle tiger too. -Lloyd
