| Longing | May 27, 2010 @ 12:00pm | 
As I was moving Lacey(my other horse) to the pasture Shotgun(this horse) was watching through the hole he has made. I feel this picture as captured the longing look in his eye. What is your critique on this photo. |

Every winter Shotgun spends his days in a tie stall (since we get too much snow), so each year he creates a way to watch the outside world. One year this was pushing out a barn board so he could stick his head out. The year of this picture it was away for him to watch his caregivers as they approached/left the barn.
After losing Shotgun to illness, I find this the best personality picture I have of him. It depicts his longing for me to not leave him, and creates a feeling of longing in my heart for this kind old soul. |
