I love animals — and some people too!  :P
 

What I love more is when people have connections with animals and I don't mean just
to use them in whichever way but a real, almost symbiotic, emotional connection.

All those years of digging in that bond produced — in my eye — some very significant 
images… like this one. I was hidden in the stable, shooting through an opened window 
with a long lens so they were oblivious to my presence.

At the end of the morning warmup, they were both standing at the starting position
of the exercise.

The rider seems to say/think: "Ok, girl, are we ready? Make me proud, let's do this!"
And the young mare, with her alert and defiant look to suggest: "Right, bring it on!"
