Startled
I become so mesmerized by a horse’s beauty; they move with such grace. In this moment, Jokull, the dog, has suddenly appeared, warning his friend to stay back from the ocean’s waves. I love this horse’s natural, graceful reaction – his body curved away from the ocean, but his head curved toward the dog. His mane flowing and his leg raised as he’s cantering in the wind. All encompassed in an awe-inspiring scene of a white horse cantering on a black beach framed by glaciers and snowy hilltops. East Iceland. January 2020.
