Horse Hoof Resting - Horses just hanging out will generally have one hind foot resting, with the opposite front foot popped forward a little bit. It was fascinating to notice their hooves while waiting to ride. It did seem relaxing for them.

Today is National Solitude Day. No matter how social we are, a little peace and solitude is always beneficial to help us recharge. I was reminded of this image I made in the Tetons last fall, when this lone horse seemed perfectly content to be off by himself for a while.

The fire departement arrived on the scene, but also slid into the ditch.
Both the horse and rider as well as the #firefighters were uninjured during this accident(s).
Horse Whisperer - the guy they bring in when there are behavioral issues with a horse. Was fascinating to watch him provide a calmness and then, they went for a ride. Captured at Sussex Fairgrounds, New Jersey.
