Very well done professional work, beautifull photo, interesting perspective.

Yet, while reading the title "strenth" the thought came to my mind: should the idea of strenth be always represented by muscles?
Can strenth be soft? Can it be water?

What do you say?

    I feel that strength can be anything from a drop of water to an angry river. I know this horse and have ridden him many times. He is so powerful and strong. When I saw how the picture had turned out I felt it had captured his power and strength. I do agree that strength comes in all shapes and sizes though. Thank you for your comment as well as opening my mind about "strength."

I really like how you captured the horse's strength in this black and white photograph. It almost has a somber tone much like a horse collapsing from exhaustion or injury. However the high noon lighting and casts of shadows play up the horse's physical structure nicely.

What an amazing shot in all its movement, not to mentnion the awe at being this close to a horse moving at that speed, hooves flying in all directions. The lighting of this is fantastic, bringing a richess to every muscle and and contour of his body. The sandy background suits the photo well.
