    This is one of the other ponies at the farm where I work. I really liked the almost sad, wistful feel of the pony's gaze. I used two textures from Shadowhouse to replace the BG and give it the aged look and border. I also, as usual, added a very slight blur overlay using motion blur and gaussian blur so that the image details wouldn't be too sharp. Finally, I added a vignette to darken the edges.

    Has the feel of a snowstorm pelting down on his old head. I like your "old timey" horse series

    Rather melancholy, but beautiful image. Timeless is right.
