Description


The horse played a very significant part in our history. During the Anglo-Boer (1899-1902) war every Colonial and Boer soldier established a treasured relationship with his horse. This love of horses is very much alive even today. I want to dedicate this photo of a young lady and her horse captured at the recent "Vierkleur" celebrations to Elrika of Bloemfontein who lost her horse GoGo during this week.
I want to include the names of  artists who showed their affection towards the equines in the past: Amira, Jodie, Dawn and Kimarie.

"Have you ever ridden horses through a rainstorm?
Or led a lion through a busy street bazaar?
There are many things I'd like to turn you on to..."
                   - Horses Through A Rainstorm - Crosby, Stills & Nash

What a very sweet picture and lovely dedication. I've never been around horses much, but I'm told they have a lot of personality, so I'm sure she feels the loss terribly. Bless her heart and bless you for the sweet thoughts for her.

I never really understood horses until I rode one a couple of summers ago... very beautiful and very intelligent beings indeed. I think this dedication is most comforting and compassionate. You've captured the bond between these two in a very special way. The way her eyes are focused upon her horse, the love and its warmth are definitely felt and will be will always remain...

I like your crop on this. Showing us just the "window of the soul" of the horse. Like the expression you've captured here.

The look on her face is great. Shows much fondness. Very good composition. The shadows are hard to get away from I know.
