Lovely mood in this image Mick 😊

Thanks Dave! Luck of the moment I guess...

Lovely mood, Mick . . . how long did you have to wait for the horse to wander into the frame?

PRO+

Not long, Sue. The horse just came into the frame as the sun was dipping. Thanks, glad you like the photo!

i believe this is now my favorite that you have taken ... such a beauty xo

Not bad, eh! Very nice evening, Anne, a few of us on the hill, humans and horses, watching the sun sinking like the country's economy xxx

What a beautiful composition and mood 🍀

Thank you, Gisela! With the last few week's heat, we have had some glorious sunset. The haze in the atmosphere makes the sun's silhouette visible longe before it dips below the horizon.

This picture reminds me of a song about an old horse, released into the pasture to while away its sunset days; it is called Caballo Viejo.
It's been song by many renowned Latin vocal artists, such as Eddie Torres, Celia Cruz, and Julio Iglesias.

Julio Iglesias, eh? He was very popular, almost an idol back in my homeland, people loved him, especially ladies, probably for his good looks back in the 70s - 80s. Thank you, I am glad you like the photo, even more glad it evokes memories.
