Taken in early morning with the subject standing in a corral under a tree with rather sparse leaves. The dappled morning light coated everything with interesting patterns of light and soft shadows. The colt posed just long enought to get this shot. A piece of straw caught on the back side of the halter is protruding from its muzzle. Normally I would have tried to clone that out.

Almost 3D. Nice detail, good composition. Lovely portrait. With this kind of animal portrait it is always good to leave some space to the direction the animal is moving. I would leave more space on its left to give the picture more air. Very nice entry.
The expression on his/her fas looks like "what are you looking at". It certainly meets the criteria, but lacks excitement for me. Horses are difficult to photograph. Take a look at this guys pictures. He obviously does advanced editing but he is amazing. //photo.net/shared/community-member?user_id=1561226
