Wow, interesting and unique markings and colour! There needs to be however more of a visual separation between the horse and the background. Blending the horse into the background does not work. The viewer also needs to clearly see the eyes and "face" of the horse, which is too dark in this shot.
Have you considered using fill flash and a polarizer?

Oupss I just notice the green belly !! :P
When you were taking the picture. I recently bought a camera and a lens I wanted, rather than the package lens to go with it. By "negotiating" I saved $200 over the regular price.Quote:

ok thanks for your reply! I only brought mine on ebay .. so could not negociated! :P I have a Rebel XTI and I want something like this lens http://www.dpreview.com/news/0807/08...amron18270.asp I'm mostly shooting horse so .. I need something that I can zoom a little bit because when you are too close you don't get a really good shot of a horse they will try to come to you :)
Nice image, a compositional note: Try and avoid centering the subject; ideally putting the horse so that his mid-section was about 1/3 of the way from the RH edge and he was looking into the image might have been an idea.
i think this shot would be perfect if the horse was standing a little lower, and the light green grass was behind its head, instead of the dark green trees. that way the face would 'pop' or stand out more, as tegan suggested. love the tail action & leg stance though! :)
