Here is another photo from the 2014 calendar shoot for the Cart Horse Protection Association in Cape Town:
Young stallion Maboy in a playful mood!
This may well be my favourite photo of the entire calendar, as it perfectly captures the close, loving bond of mutual respect and trust that can exist between man and horse.
Really like this one too. Horses are very special creatures. So beautiful.
Yeah, they really are. So powerful, and yet capable of such gentleness, affection and grace.
