What a great catch! I almost didn't notice the horse -- the sunset was so beautiful@
ReplyDeleteSo neat. What a great horse. He is conserving his strength until he has to work!!! LOL Very bucolic. I love it. MB
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Sometimes I can't tell if the sun is rising or setting until I read the captions. Is there a way to determine which is which from a photo?
ReplyDeleteDarla
reminds me of home (when I was a kid) great shot
ReplyDeleteAw, this is just too cute and too serene! I'm sure that horse has dozed off for the night - things look so peaceful I'm sure I would too!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture, EG... Love that sky--with the sun going down. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
That place looks like peace, like if I looked in the dictionary under peace, this would be the picture. Awesome... serenity.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like he is asleep to me. I was always amazed that all animals can get any rest at all while standing up on their feet but they do.
ReplyDeleteTo me, the horse and the stable make the picture - a magnificent atmosphere when the setting sun is added.
ReplyDeletePS Doesn't horses sleep standing?
Wonderful sleepy horse at sunset! A quiet, peaceful image. Makes one feel all is well with the world.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he's just contemplating the beauty of that sunset. What a gorgeous photo.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Simple and perfect. Love it!
ReplyDeletelovely photo........I wonder do horses sleep standing up or laying down?
ReplyDeleteGill
Beautiful, and there's something almost horse-y about the cloud, not sure what - a bit of mane, a flying tail?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot; that is a very impressive heavy horse.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a peaceful photo, I absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

Too funny! - and beautiful all at the same time. He does look like he's asleep.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this sky! Ours was like this before in the afternoon yesterday. (I was locked in a meeting at sunset, so I've no idea how it turned out.) HOWEVER, near me there is nothing so picturesque beneath the sky!
ReplyDeleteLove the cloud in your shot! Lovely colors and shape! And I believe the horse is taking a nap - yes!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot!
What a beautiful sleepy atmosphere,
ReplyDeletethank you!
( Our snow is covering still everything, it has started a little to become more wet, but nowhere is still a ground to see :) It is very usual yet in this time of year on our latitudes )
Beautiful weekend to you!
Great shot. He looks like he's nodding off. Beautiful sunset, too.
ReplyDeleteWell if he's already nodded off, I wouldn't recommend waking him up. That's one powerful looking beast! Whew!
ReplyDeleteAnd he's the perfect counterpoint to that gorgeous sunset!
What a handsome fellow .. and what a perfect composition ..
ReplyDeleteso beautiful photo and yes we have here in Finland is still snowing:)
ReplyDeleteI know it's about the sky today; but looking at that picture, I couldn't help but admire the beauty of that horse.
ReplyDeleteHe could be lol...Beautiful play of instruments here....love the burning sky!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit shamefully I have some trouble telling between sunset photos and sunrise photos.
ReplyDeleteI do believe he has!! Gorgeous shot! Beautiful sky and handsome horse!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunset and composition. I love your ice on the pond as well.
ReplyDeleteyep...i think i hear him snoring...
ReplyDeletebeautiful capture there.
What an idyllic scene. Trust you to come up with the most enchanting photo each time. The contrast between the greyness of the landscape and the tired horse and the red sky is amazing and yet there are no stark contrasts. How do you do it?
ReplyDeleteQuite beautiful.
