Horse Image of the Week
Why We Like It We like it because that horse on the right looks like it is smirking at us & the one of left might just burst out laughing at any moment. We love to see humanlike emotion reflected in animals. While we love all horses, we do like photography of them that uses […]

Why We Like It First, we love it because it was submitted to us. This is little Indiana taking a rest under the fence of her pasture. She is cute as a button (we do love the spotted ones!) and we just want to lay down on the grass next to her.

Why We Like It There is something quite unexpected & cute about this image. While most of it is the yin & yang effect, but some of it is the casual & relaxed behavior of the subjects. We think they are feral ponies, but aren’t quite sure where they are in the world. They look […]

Read Black Beauty Online – Chapter 49. My Last Home
Chapter 49. My Last Home One day during this summer the groom cleaned and dressed me with such extraordinary care that I thought some new change must be at hand; he trimmed my fetlocks and legs, passed the tarbrush over my hoofs, and even parted my forelock. I think the harness had an extra polish. […]

Why We Like It It’s no secret we like shots of grazing horses, especially when you pair them with great photography. This robust lady is enjoying her afternoon meal & we wish we could lay in the grass nearby to watch her eat. She displays aubtle mealy characteristics on her lovely bay coat – we […]

Read Black Beauty Online – Chapter 48. Farmer Thoroughgood and His Grandson Willie
Chapter 48. Farmer Thoroughgood and His Grandson Willie At this sale, of course I found myself in company with the old broken-down horses — some lame, some broken-winded, some old, and some that I am sure it would have been merciful to shoot.

Why We Like It We don’t really have to explain it do we? There is something about the youngsters, something unpredictable & wild. This image captures that, along with the lovely black coats of these beautiful Friesian babies. They make a striking pair & we’d love to have seen them frolic!

Read Black Beauty Online – Chapter 47. Hard Times
Chapter 47. Hard Times My new master I shall never forget; he had black eyes and a hooked nose, his mouth was as full of teeth as a bull-dog’s, and his voice was as harsh as the grinding of cart wheels over graveled stones. His name was Nicholas Skinner, and I believe he was the […]

Why We Like It We simply cannot resist images of horses in fields of flowers, especially daisies. This photo really speaks for itself, but can we just say dapples! There is something about a dapple grey horse that makes us think of unicorns in training.

Read Black Beauty Online – Chapter 46. Jakes and the Lady
Chapter 46. Jakes and the Lady I was sold to a corn dealer and baker, whom Jerry knew, and with him he thought I should have good food and fair work. In the first he was quite right, and if my master had always been on the premises I do not think I should have […]

Why We Like It There is definitely something gloomy & melancholy about this image, but we like it anyway. The horse doesn’t look particularly sad (or underfed) just tired. It’s really the setting itself that gives it an ominous vibe. Regardless of the slightly horror movie feel, we give this shot a thumbs up. We […]
