Horse Photo Competition 5 2015 : Entry Number 94

Judges Comment

what an absolutely stunning and unique image. the leading line of the tree line takes our eye to the glow of morning light and the silhouetted horse on the hill. i do find that the crop is a little tight at the top ... increasing the space above the horse so that there is twice as much space between his back and the top of the frame would allow for more breathing room, and not cause as much tension. but otherwise, a wonderfully seen and captured image. bravo. ~ illona

Thanks a lot for this prize among great pictures. This photo was taken in Terceira Island, Azores, by the end of the day when I'm driving home. I had to get off road to the other side of a highway. The horse is on a field that is surrounded by trees and electric wires, thats why I made the composition this way, mainly to avoid the wires. Thank you so much for this distinction and the other to photographs that made the excellence mark.
