    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?

    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.

    Your edited photo is much better, but I would still tend to move in closer with a camera before taking the shot and work on bright, noticeable eyes.
