...and in the next frame, rider-as-lawn-dart? If he really is a college student, perhaps he has the ability to bounce, like I did way back then. ;-) Great timing on your capture.

Almost beautiful, this. I would have it in black and white - it would remove the humdrum everyday element that this kind of ordinary colour brings to a photograph - we know the grass is green, the horse is probably brown, the logs are borwn, the sky is a shade of blue etc. etc., and it would focus the attention on the extraordinary shapes of these figures that you have captured.

Comment by posthumous:
amazing capture. the helplessness of the horse is so poignant. horse and rider both seem to be in a gentle state of acceptance. The rider looks to already be comforting the horse. 8
