Pity about the large rear end, would have been better a bit more side on or on a diet ...

Oh my !!!!! It was obvious that the image was doing well but I never expected it to ribbon, let alone blue. I thought when I took it may, just may, be my first 6 .... I've been bouncing around all day with a big grin .... thanks folks !!!!!!!

Way to go on throwin g your personal record book out the window. Bask & enjoy! My heartiest congratulations for your achievement and a truly gorgeous image!
Sometimes I am really amazed by the choice of DPC Voters & recently I was almost picked wrong images for the contests. I am not questioning your winning entry but for my choice & selection :)
Lovely composition, very moody! Love the colours and the fog. The wind movement of the tail is a nice touch and even the pond complements this unique image. Good work!
If you cover (or crop) the bottom third of this picture so that the pond and lower half of the horse are no longer visible it starts to take on a 'mystical' look.
Spectacular !!! not much to critique, well balanced, nice colors, interesting subject to lead the viewer into the shot. Only the patch of water(pond) interrupted and otherwise perfect shot !
Watching ...
