 Don't really know if this will be regarded as matching the contest theme ... but I tried not to be too obvious.
I am also aware that unicorns do not have much to do with Greek mythology, but I didn't want to clone the horn out.
Let's see how it does.

The picture was taken in the gardens of Palazzo Borromeo, on Isola Bella (Lake Maggiore, Italy).

Looks like an amazing place, I would like to see more of it. The large bush, however, is not very interesting and it takes up most of the photo. Perhaps a different angle to show more of the things on the mount.

Mount Olympus is a wonderful setting, but this shot seems to me to be missing a focal point or a clear subject.

It almost looks like the horse/unicorn is climbing up the bush. Good color saturation and I like the soft light.
