solitary
October 22, 2007
I love this photo. This horse was standing apart from all the others who were crowding around the perimeter of the fence.
The horse reminds me of myself. He is standing there, all alone, looking around at all the beautiful landscape, and thinking, “Yeah, this is nice, but how the hell did I get here?”

Nah. I think he’s waiting for the others in the pack to catch up.
October 22nd, 2007 at 10:25 pmWhat a sky - it’s sooo blue and perfect. So it the photo. Thanks.
October 22nd, 2007 at 10:47 pmAbsolutely breathtaking…
October 23rd, 2007 at 12:58 amWhen I used to have lovely pasture, I could sit and watch my horses for hours on end. I love the dynamics, and especially how one was always “on watch” while the others napped or grazed. *siiiiigh*
October 23rd, 2007 at 1:28 amIs your sky really that blue, or did you have some kind of sky-blue-filter on the camera? Beautiful . . . but all your pictures are awesome, especially the ones of the kids. I love the way you capture them candidly (is that a word?)
October 23rd, 2007 at 2:14 amThis was what it looked like yesterday. The sky was so bright it was almost surreal with the colored leaves.
Today it is back to being a gray and gloomy fall day.
October 23rd, 2007 at 8:07 amChris, you make me laugh everyday! I love looking at the pictures you take and reading your comments. Thanks for sharing with us.
October 23rd, 2007 at 8:39 amI love this shot.
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:00 amThat is a beautiful picture & the sky is such an amazing blue! Great photo!
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:06 amthose colors don’t even look real.
October 23rd, 2007 at 10:08 amGorgeous!
October 23rd, 2007 at 11:10 amFeel the horse….be the horse…..
October 23rd, 2007 at 12:02 pmLOL… I think similarly all of the time!
October 23rd, 2007 at 12:06 pmAre you sure it isn’t thinking “will anyone notice if I take a nap?”…at least that’s what I’d be thinking if I were the horse…
October 23rd, 2007 at 3:16 pmIt really does look like he’s thinking that.
October 25th, 2007 at 11:46 amWhy does he look so much like a cow? At first I thought it was a picture of a cow! Maybe that’s because I live around so many dairy farms??
October 26th, 2007 at 10:45 amThe phrase “thinning the herd” comes to mind ….
October 27th, 2007 at 9:26 amI think you should start a career as a professional photographer….you know, in all your FREE time?! Gorgeous shot, along with the others!
As for the horse, I’d rather be a palomino….gee, do I hear a new online quiz coming up….what breed of horse are you?
October 28th, 2007 at 3:37 amo wow. too true.
October 28th, 2007 at 5:30 am“Yeah, this is nice, but how the hell did I get here?”
I so totally understand.
Totally.
