By the way, this photograph was shot (and named) weeks before the Led Zeppelin challenge was announced. Too bad for me since this would have fit that challenge perfectly. :-(

Very nicely seen to just shoot the legs, as that is the most powerful part of the horse (even as a statue) and I am sure also helped to eliminate a lot of distraction in the background as well.

Ah, from Julianne's comment I see that this is indeed a sculpture - I thought it was, but couldn't figure out the water splashes! Great angle and exposure on this - a very captivating shot.

Is this the sculpture in Dallas. I love that piece(s) of art .. the way the sculptures and fountain work so beautifully together. This is a nice angle for a dramatic shot.
