cherlyn 1 Posted March 26, 2005 I am really " daydreaming" of seeing a rich blue sky & siholuette horse quietly admiring the beautiful landscape infront of it. Link to comment

carnelli 0 Posted March 26, 2005 Baldur, these clouds have an uncanny resemblance to angel's wings, the fence line diagonals and horse complete this painterly scenic....cheers....Tye. Link to comment

baldurbirgis 0 Posted March 27, 2005 Armindo, IceRock, Paul, Marta, Colin, Cherlyn, Otto, Fernando, Tye, Tuhin, Gaetan and Loft for your feedback which is greatly appreciated. Best viewed LARGE. It was cold and windy this morning. I noticed the horse while driving and stopped the car and went out. I had to wait for quite a long time until the horse lost his interest in me and looked forward. In this pose, with the head like this, horsetail a little visable, framing comparing to the cloud formation at the right moment (using prime lens and the clouds changed rather quickly) and at last with the idea of "daydreams" in mind, I made the shot. To IceRock: This shot was made only 1 1/2 hour before another shot of mine, "just another day" and the blue color is similar in both and compared to the film, it is not unreal. To Tye: Interesting point about angels wings! There is also a harmony between the clouds and the landscape. To Tuhin: I can see it now! Maybe this is a horse in another dimension! To Loft: About Bobby Fischer: He is without a doubt a genius but nobody is perfect! Even though we care about somone, we do not always have to agree with him. He has many good friends here who really care about him and he has got a safe place in mind and heart of many people here in Iceland since he became World Champion Thursday 31. August 1972 in Reykjavik. I am glad because of this solution and I hope he will forgive and will be forgiven. I also hope that he will find a peace in heart and mind. I wish him all the best in the coming future. Happy Easter to all of you. Link to comment

jos www.inpix.biz 0 Posted March 28, 2005 Baldur, I see a second horse in the clouds, perhaps it is Pegasus! this is a beautiful composition and very expressive. I also enjoy your thoughts about Bobby . . . to forgive is to rise above the many. Cheers! Link to comment
baldurbirgis 0 Posted March 29, 2005 Jos, many thanks for your visit and comment. I really appreciate it. Maybe it is Pegasus or it is the free spirit of the horse! About forgive: Thanks for your true words. Cheers! Link to comment

arup 0 Posted April 6, 2005 An exceptional image. One thing I really liked is the painting like sky of the photo. Link to comment
baldurbirgis 0 Posted April 9, 2005 Arup, many thanks for your comment. At the moment when the horse tail got visable infront of the legs by the wind, the horse formation in the clouds appeared. It looks like a gift from the nature. Link to comment
