Title and first line the same. Nice perspective - the flying dirt is pretty cool. Voted earlier

Don't even need to look for this one. One of the Doors' best. Kind of literal image but gets the soft focus high key better than most. 6

Into this house we're born.... The Doors... one of my favorite albums way back then. Well represented here too.

Good composition and well-chosen with its title, but I do think it needs a focal point on the leading horse and/or rider.

Well composed shot, but loses a lot of impact through the softness

Well, you made the guessing game a bit easy 'Riders on the Storm' by The Doors.

Nice soft, high key illustration.

By the Doors of course. The action f running is well captured.

The blur and high key give this an old time photo kind of feel. After coming back to comment I am going to bump you up one. Was probably a bit harsh on the first vote through.
