A Beautiful Day for a Ride

As summer has finally landed, I have found time to bring horses back into my life. Meet the newest additions to the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College Equestrian Program. I've been out riding/fighting/training these guys since Sunday, and every moment has been a blast. Can there be anything better than sharing a glorious day with an animal? Below are featured some moments from last Sunday.

Note: I have decided to add a watermark to my photography to help ensure their safety. Please respect the watermark. I will be adding it to past photography as well. Thank you

Above is Pass (left) and Silver (Right). Both are retired racehorses, approximately seven years old. Just look at that sky!


Silver says hello! While he isn't the most lovely horse, his personality makes him utterly adorable. While I was snapping photos he was extremely interested. Check out those radar-like ears and oh-so-serious expression. Is there any wonder why horses are often personified with human traits?

Off the horses for a moment. As I was headed back into the barn, the bright reflection off of the horse trailer caught my eye. I couldn't resist capturing the moment.

Enjoy!
