    Wow! This is amazing! The composition here is one of your finest Dan. I love the grey colours in the clouds and how it reflects off the road. This is really a majestic image.

    I have to pay tribute to your great works and I wish I could have included this masterpiece.

    This is an interesting photo..

    Was the horse really loose at the side of the road like that? (which would lead me to my next question as to why or how did this horse escape his paddock enclosure and what's he doing running loose?)

    Or is this a composite image?

    Intriguing, nonetheless ;-)
