blissful inspiration
I find that often times I find something, latch onto it and can’t seem to let it go. Lately that thing has been horses (my bliss readers already know this). Especially when it comes to photography. I have been doing my best to put myself in situations where I am lucky enough to point my camera at these beautiful animals. I have also become completely taken with some of my favorite photographers’ interpretations:
I hope you love them as much as I do. xo mrs. french

I love horses, and espacially these horses! Amazing collection, I don’t know how you do it :)
I’ve been wanting to paint them lately- beautiful photos!
They are so beautiful. I’ve had one on my Christmas list every year since I was five. Maybe someday….
Oh my god, I’ve suddenly got this crazy urge to go jump a fence, chase down a horse and hug the crap out of it! ;) Not literally, of course. The crap part, I mean.
These images are just amazing.
Wow, that first image left me speechless. Black beauty!
That eye-to-eye is just so smart and so serene.
me too! I have been horse crazy since i was kid. I just started riding again after many a year away and feel like a little girl again. horse crazy all over
that first shot just kills me.
I miss horses so much…this post makes me want to run away to the country..
these are so gorgeous ! I love them all !
Wow, the thorburn photo has such a wild feeling to it. I love it! I just visited a horse farm this past weekend; there’s something so peaceful about them; hard not to love.
beautiful mrs. french – such peaceful, calming creatures.
These are amazing! That first image gives me chills!
Just beautiful. Here is a picture I took with the polaroid app on my iPhone.
Oops forgot the iPhone picture link.

these are all amazing. the photo at the top with the eyes blew me away :)
Wow wow wow! Soo lovely. Doesn’t a horse running just say freedom?
Gorgeous images! So magical.
I love, love, love pictures of horses. Beautiful creatures. Have even tried some on my own horses with, let´s say, various results. I especially loved the one at the top with the eyes
these are so inspirational.
so here’s the thing- i have a tiny fear of horses. it may be their majestic size, or maybe i think they smell my fear? but to get over it, i’ve forced myself to start photographing them. some horses seem to like it lol. but it’s been working so far.
simply beautiful animals
You have to check out the horse photographs by Ann Hall. they are incredible. i saw them years ago and they still haunt me. Check out the series “the dowry” on her site.

i haven’t been there in a while – i’m going to explore some more. I imagine all of her work is amazing.
Lovely photographs even though I have never ever been into horses….I haven’t even sat on a horse in my life!
Donkeys however….now they are lovely! So full of personality. I would love to own a small holdings and have two donkeys =) KA
Wow wow wow! Beautiful images! All of them!
Love love love this collection of images. Makes me want to go to the barn and shoot!
