Occasionally, when you think of a type of photograph, your mind instantly remembers a favorite pose or composition. When I think of horse pictures, this pose is one that comes to mind. I remember as a child, I had a horse painting, very close to this pose, in my bedroom. Maybe it stuck in my subconscious and I just expect all horses to pose like this. This beautiful horse was nice enough to help me come away with at least one of those “expected” poses.
