Sure its a record shot of a broken horse, but there is little else here which would interest anyone other than the owner of the toy. Try to think about how to present your idea better. Use the light, move it into a room where the light source is a single window. Put some effort into it and we will respond with higher votes.

Very flat lighting and IMO not too thought over composition. Looks more light a snapshot to me.

Hi. I'm drawn to the lighter part of the pic (mane), so initially I missed the broken part. Not sure how to emphasize - perhaps a different angle. Also, I think this would work nicely in B&W.

good subject, point of view uninspired, lighting flat, lack of contrast
