What a beautiful picture that evokes a timelessness. The quality of the feeling and the closeness of Emma and her horse - makes me yearn for and remember my horses too. Thank you and may we all find this closeness and peace that comes from sharing, love, and kindness.

This picture is absolutely beautiful. There's so much going on in such simplicity.

Absolutely beautiful. I see the same love and devotion in my daughter when she is with David, the horse she borrows freedom with.

Horse are so honest! An apple and a little bit of your time is all that they ask of you :-)
Thank You,
