Hi John! Please can you add the scientific name so that we can take this off of the "unknown" list & add a link (wikipedia etc) to the references. Because we have a global user base & sometimes many different common names for the same species, the system will continue to show a spotting as unidentified until the scientific name has been completed.

Mind if I draw this picture? I'll give you a copy later if you'd like.

The horse is naturally beautiful, the setting makes it 10x better! BEAUTIFUL picture.

Thank you, John. No wonder someone bought it, it is really beautiful! I saw the thumbnail and I thought, it must be taken in Mexico, and it was! :)

Is not a painting, is a photograph, and very very beautiful.

The back round is what made me think it was a painting.

Hi John, can you confirm you are the photographer of this photo? I found 4 results of it, including two stock photo agencies. http://www.tineye.com/search/eca0f54a00d25fa3c32c0be9be656c761ccda56a/
