Photographer’s Note

Those young mongolian shepherds know how to ride horses from being a toddler (maybe it's the first thing they know). Horse is the most important comrade & friend of human. Sometimes it's closer to the next herd of ships than to other human residence, when you have to ride even whole day. Only the horizon determines the border of pasture.
HERE is a previous version of the same situation.

The look on the young mans face is as cloudy as the sky above him.
The composition is very nice. Thank you.

Hello Slawek,

Nice picture with this good light who Illuminates the boy and his horse in opposition with the dark sky.
I find she have even greater force square framing and I propose to you a small workshop for giving you my vision.

Regards,
Damien.

Hi Slawek,
The composition is interesting, the sky is superb, the place is far away from everything. Perhaps would I have tried to move the rider a little out of the center.
Cheers
Marc
