This is my first comment on a picture. I really like this picture for some reason! Did you actually get that close to the horse, or was that zooming in? I think it's cool that you can see the camera and the background and the eye as well. Pictures of eyes are just so cool! But I don't think I've ever seen a picture of a HORSE's eye, especially not that close up, deffinantly makes the photo more unique. I like your horse's eye highlight and just overall the whole coloring of the eye in contrast to the pretty coat colour. I would like to see this next to a umm well this is a close up so I'd also like to the horse's face farther back.

Hi there! I'm not the best at reviewing art or photography, so forgive me if my critiques make no sense whatsoever.
This is an excellent idea for a photograph. Hope it didn't blind him/her, though - though, judging by the reflection of the camera in Dusty's eye, you had turned flash off for the picture. The reflection of the camera kind of bugs me. It seems like, if you wished to capture a reflection in an animal's eye, it would be of some beautiful scenery or something. Just not a camera. I'm not sure how it'd be possible not to have the camera in the reflection, but I honestly find it quite irritating.
Secondly, I think the picture would look a bit better without the lower eyelid. It sets it off-balance, and the lower eyelashes going off the screen don't look particularly professional.
This isn't going to be much of a review, just praise. I love the colors, the zoom in was unique and very well done, the whole thing is beautiful, and I also love the feel I get from it! Okay, just needed all that out in the open! One tiny, absolutely insignificant thing is really the reflection in your horse's eye, which sort of draws from the beauty of the entire piece, sort of distracting. Keep up the good work! Ofir

I hope you didn't blind the horse or hurt it in any way by taking the photo. Was it in flash? Then you certainly did . . . I think.
Anyways, the photography was excellent and I loved the reflection. I think that if you took another picture, this one far back, then you would be able to get an excellent picture. I am sure that your horse would look really beautiful.
Is your horse a she or a he? Is she/he a foal or is she/he big?
Wow, you are lucky to have a horse, do you live in a farm house?
I know, I know, I am supposed to talk about the photography, but sometimes I get sidetracked.
