I like this. I can almost feel them emerging out of the dark.

A most wonderful composition because of the dark and light subjects like universal ying-yang of the interplay of light and dark.

I really like this photo, but i find one thing about it a little disconcerting. It really looks (maybe is) like a photo taken in the dark with a flash. All the light was sucked up by the first horse. I would have liked to have seen mor than a hint of the third. More of the faceof the brown. I love the concept however.

This photo is just magic. I'm adding it to my favorites and I hope it wins. I love that the pony on the left fades into darkness, the white pony is a great counterpoint. One seems to be moving toward the darkness, the other afraid of it. And if all that isn't great enough you have the skyline in the back with just the perfect hint of sunset. I'm a huge fan, good luck. 10.

Good job capturing the sunset, but the direct flash is killing this photo, would have been better in silohette (did I spell that right!?)

Ok, I think this is the winner!!! Man, there is nothing about this that I don't like. The lighting, the detail, the entire quality is outstanding!
