This frightened shy girl was about to enter the auction ring at Shipshewana Indiana. Sad to say her owners had forgotten the many loyal years she had given them as a friend and trusted mount . The good news is she was purchased by a family who like me despite her years saw her incredible kindness , beauty , heart and spirit . If not for this wonderful family this lovely creature would be in my barn . She has become a little girls best friend again . She deserves no less .

Looks like she could do with a haircut too. No doubt, she will get the best of care from her new family. Easy to see this lovely blonde drove you to distraction also.

Lovely shot, I adore how the blond mane and the green harness contrast one another. And I also adore that she found a new home, wonderful!

The world is a curious thing, your camera is your magnifying glass.

She was camera shy it appears, and shy to be auctioned off, too. Nice colors and lighting on the beautiful horse.

Old animals deserve all the best, just like old people, respect and gratitude.
Good for the girl to get a new home as friendly as that.
Thanks, dear friend.
Yours SAM

Very well composed portrait -it almost made me teary-eyed picturing a young girl spending hours just talking to her and brushing her and making her feel loved and needed again....

I love the shot and sentiment. I wish the photo was a little larger.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
