 Shot for the challenge, on the evening of the last day. Her mane is actually white, well, mostly white. But I'd been shooting into the sun on this spot for years and knew it would show up nicely yellow.

Image is uncropped, I have a bad habit of composing too tightly in camera.

This is my young mare Twix, Lipizzan-Arabian.

Gorgeous golden light. Isn't it cheating to have the world's most beautiful model?

This is definitely one of my favourites. Really like the plain bland background with the vibrant yellow hair. Not voting but would be a 9 from me.

Stunning image, with such a noble animal. I love his position and his "smile", and the way the sun glow reflects along his neck and jaw. Just not quite yellow enough.
