Funny! Even though you've positioned the head almost dead-centre (against the 'rules' of composition) the humour makes this interesting. Well seen!

Cute picture. It looks like the horse likes the idea.

I think you chose a good framing for this, having this much fence shows in a nice way what the picture is about. The hills make a nice background.

Funny and pretty - I like the hills and the fence frame, but I agree with the others, maybe too much frame here, but I wouldn't crop as much of the right, as in the robbertjan's ws. You got excellent texture on the wood fence. I think the colors convey the cold weather. Glad you posted this.

Well seen, but judging from the ends of the planks and those to the right of the horse I think the horse made this as a do it yourself on a lazy afternoon. Some horses eat wood, a constant problem in stables. It is a well seen motive on the humorous side but the picture need a little sharpening and contrast.

Great depth of field, and good angle. Love this shot. The fence textures are well detailed and captured. Well done, Michel. I think this would fit nicely in the animals theme.

Great shot, it appears he/she has a partner who may occupy the 2nd window, but not right now, maybe cos its a very small 2nd window?!
A really nice repetitive fence and a good original image, however I also do like workshops 2 and 3, offering something a bit different in the same image, as I say not a necessity to alter it, it is a very clever and solid image, one I'm sure you knew you had captured something worth posting as soon as the shutter closed, I love it when that happens.
See what you think of my recent pony post.
