Premium Photo Competition 2012 Q3 : Entry Number 341

Judges Comment

In the past, we saw similar photos like this before. BUT not from this angle or perspective. Most of these kind of photos are being shot from the front of the horse. This photo is different, and this is why we think it is a stunner; how the light enters the booth of the horse and gently flows along the wall. And having a gate at the back. Very well done!

Patient - Thoroughbred Healing Charan McMillan Shot with an Olympus e500 This is a splendid horse temporarily off the playground. The longing for the gallop and freedom in his eyes and the disregard for the playball hanging, and the healing warmth of the sun on his shins seemed like such a poignant moment for me to see.
