do not like the crop at all

Love the composition! I'm also a big fan of the color choice here. Its subtle yet smooth and warm. It almost has a rustic old feeling to it. And the composition is very dynamic and unique. One of my favorites after more than 100 images. :) Nice job. 10

Pretty good. Top of the head is too close to the horizon. Feels uncomfortable.

You lost too much of the detail of the horse in the post processing

Perhaps a entire head shot may have shown better?

Not enough face showing...

One of my(many minor) pet peeves at this site is the photo of a horse standing around looking stupid. It works well for photos of cows, because stasis and blankness is quintessential cow nature. But horse nature - in our imaginaition - is horsesense and motion. To capture the spirit of the horse, it must be in motion. So when I saw this photo I had to wonder whether this is a kind of parody of photo of the horse standing around looking stupid or whether it was the real thing.

I keep trying to see something, anything, in this photo and all I see is two ears and a bunch of hair exquisitely lit and sharply in focus. Everything else is impossible - might as well be out of focus. Sorry, but the longer I look at this photo the less I see in it.

great...I think the whole face could of also been included, to show the long face but I like your intention in cropping the nose

This is an interesting use of thirds, keeping 2/3 of subject in and cutting out 1/3, this is a very funny photo, I can barely see thru my laughter tears enough to type. I am giving it a good score, well done.

did you have to crop out the snout? really great photo, but would have scored higher because it's distracting for me without the nose.
