Hi Sylvain,
I really like this shot, it has a nice dramatic mood with the clouds which is emphasized by the black and white. Great composition with the horse placed off centre in the landcsape. Well done!

beautiful B&W-image! :-) the dramatic sky above the big dark horse is awesome,
i maybe just would have placed the horse on the other side giving him more space in the direction he is looking.
well done & take care, thor.

Bonjour Sylvain,

Une très belle photo, j'aime beaucoup la composition pleine de simplicité. Ce cheval de trait est magnifique et bien mis en valeur dans ce paysage de landes. Le traitement noir et blanc est tout à fait judicieux pour donner à ce ciel un effet plus oppressant. Un joli coup d'oeil et superbe traitement, bravo Sylvain.

Avec toutes mes amitiés et un très bon WE,

Jean-Charles

really beautiful. I see a halo surrounded the horse. I agree with thor68 about how if the horse might have been placed on the left side of the photo, the image would be alitle bit easier on the eyes. Well done!
