Weekend Life....Horses Running in The Snow (Vista Verde Ranch, Colorado)

Vista Verde Ranch, Colorado, late January 2014.

Nothing much absolutely nothing in focus here but sometimes that isn't the point. Seeing these magnificent horses running in the falling snow at the Ranch was pretty incredible.

And I love the little ivory-coloured horse coming up on the inside, trying its hardest to keep up with the bigger horses. Sometimes I feel like that ;)
