Dueling Mustangs

Description

Wild horses in the Pryor Mountains of South Central Montana. These are members of a "bachlor band", not really fighting, just practicing for when they have their own harems and will then have to run off the competition.

What a great shot. It has such neat contrast between the pretty delicate little flowers and the powerful horses. The added colour from the background just brings even more life to the picture. Too often you'll see pictures like this with the brown grass as a backdrop and though the horses remain beautiful and powerful, they don't pop as much as they do in this shot. #1748999
