Work horse

Good picture and good title. As someone who has owned horses, it brings back sense memories of the sounds and scents surrounding a horse, the creak of tack, the rustle of bits, and the calm blowing breaths of a horse in calm repose.
I like the post work. The added texture and the edges. The only thing I would change if it were mine and if I had enough image to work with would be to crop so theres a bit more space above, to the left and at the bottom of the image. Mostly, I'd want a bit more separation of the horse from the left margin of the image. But....overall, excellent shot.

Thank you John for stopping by and giving positive and constructive critics. You recognised my problem with the photo – the background was difficult to fade away which would have allowed more space around the whole head, which I might do if I get in the PS mood;)
