Beautiful capture. Great contrast here. The dark skies really make the horses stand out.

Just magnificent. The wind blowing the manes gives the illusion of movement. Great photography.

Horses are my weak area. I guess it comes from not being around them as often as I would like. Anyway, incredible beautiful picture. The horses in their natural surroundings, before people- you can say.

Great! Wonderful lighting. Almost like you have a fan blowing their manes, like a fashion models hair shoot.

The horses, the sky and the manes of the horses make for a stunning story. Congrats on the feature.

Strikingly beautiful image. The manes blend so
effortlessly with the clouds: a perfect cohesion between land and sky.

Those manes are just gorgeous. Did they have hair and make-up before the shoot, lol!

Location
It is taken in the neighborhood of my hometown Hafnarfjordur in Iceland.Time
It is taken at 15:23.Lighting
The horses are lit up with a good light from the sun and the half cloudy sky made a great background.Equipment
Canon EOS 5D and Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM II lens.Inspiration
I love horses and have been photographing them a lot through the years.Editing
I cropped the image a bit to get a better balance, darkened the sky and increased the contrast.In my camera bag
Canon EOS 5D Mark III and Canon Sl1 cameras. Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM II, Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM II and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM II lenses.Feedback
The only way to get a good photo of horses is to be patient. It is very important to associate with the horses with respect and friendship. Try to talk to them, it helps a lot :)
