(4,736 posts)It takes a gifted horsewoman to instill the level of trust demonstrated by these handsome horses as they traverse obstacles most horses would shy away from.
And those three fellows gathered at the fence in the next-to-last shot are obviously good friends. And the pair pictured in the preceding shot blowing a greeting in each others nostrils implies a comforting security.
I look forward to your photo tours every week! Love 'em!

(4,736 posts)... reminded me of a metal grate bridge across the Umpachene River in Southfield, Mass when I was a kid sixty-odd years ago. My horse, Patch, did not like crossing it because he could see through it. I had to walk him over it several times before he'd do it with me in the saddle. It still made him nervous, though, because his shoes would slip a little on the grate.
And, yeah, I'm that old! I'll turn 80 next year! So much for Live fast, die young, and leave a beautiful corpse!
