Finding horses in strange situations is something I enjoy, from snow to sand to clouds I look for them everywhere I go. Luckily there are plenty of photographers who seem to feel the same way that share their visions with the rest of us.

Who doesn’t love a good horse ice sculpture? They are cold, drippy and carved into your favorite animal – they are temporary art that only lasts for so long. In fact, the photographs are all that remains of these particular ice sculptures.
