Wow, for three of them to come together like this and to capture the moment when the horse on the left licks the nose of the horse on the right, just brilliant. I hope we see this again. #10051208

Such a horsey moment. Seen but seldom captured. Love it! #10051572

This is a perfect capture of them, Jack! I really enjoyed being around them when I visited Iceland. They are intelligent, good tempered, versatile and beautiful. They can can be found in over 40 different colors, with about 100 variations. I hope we will see this capture again. #10051602

Thanks so much for the kind comments. I truly appreciate it.

The horses are generally very friendly and curious in Iceland. That creates a bit of a problem because they come up to and focus on you.

In order to get more of their natural interplay, I had to move back a fair distance, while still keeping their attention, but also allowing their natural instinct to take over.
