Description
Although I consider this a completed image, I've still got plenty of ideas floating around that may improve it. For now, I'm happy with the way it is. As always, critique of any kind is warmly welcomed :o)

Lovely stuff. I've been trying to do a scene with similar lighting without any luck so far.

I'll be the complete pig then. I think the image would be improved by a better perspective, at the moment it looks a little flat. Using volumetric lighting is nice, but here I think it's overdone, and that you're using it to cover a lack of depth behind the horse (it's a black background without anything in it isn't it? other than those Xfrog trees natch). What I see in the end is an image that's composed of a horse from Poser, foliage from Xfrog and the light. Other than the creative inspiration, I can't see any of your work. (and this generally goes for a lot of the things I see from poser). I'd rather see a badly done untextured head that was done by hand as a first experiment than a whole scene that was put together from lego blocks. There we go. I'm an evil git. Keep going, but don't be afraid to do things yourself even if they aren't as good looking as some of the precanned things you can get. It's only by doing that that you can develop the skills to fill in the parts when you don't have those things to do it for you.

Although I agree for the most part with Nexus, I generally will do all the modeling myself as well, but on occasion I have used premade models in my images (Poser, etc.) What I think really counts is the composition and quality of the final image. How you got to that final image really does not matter. IMHO. I do think the image could be improved with a little more background detail, but I think I understand the feel you are going for here. Very nice image.

Thanks for the comments guys. I completely agree with you Daniel, but will just say, there is always more to an image then first meets the eye ;o)

The horse looks a bit plasticy to me, or maybe he's just worked up a sweat, and the lighting looks a bit odd, maybe like Nexus said, a bit overdone. Good stuff otherwise!
