Animals can be harsh with each other and this is how these two PLAY! These two geldings love to play with each other. A moment later they were standing quietly side by side vacuuming up cottonwood leaves together. They are kept separated by a fence on a daily basis so that the game doesn't get too serious, but they play the same games OVER the fence too. Every so often I turn them out together so they can truely horse around under supervision. No horses were hurt or injured during the making of this photo, I cannot vouch for any of thier hair, however!

8 - Nice capture. May be even more dramatic with a 'perspective fix' - nudge rotate up on the right, maybe - but perhaps this is your preference.
