 Since I won't be able to find a good horse photo op this week, this beautiful Chinese terra cotta horse with rider (about 12"h x 9"w) will have to do. I am sure it won't score well, because photos of statues/art rarely do, and there are so many good equine photographers on this site. Still it is one of my treasures, so I'm happy to have the opportunity to share it.

RAW conversion: white balance, increase black, sharpen
CS3: crop, USM, boarder, save for web

Good luck. I know a lot of voters are going to hammer this because it's not a real horse. The dof is really nice.
