Fantastic capture of indeed an alternative way of life.
the "Hot shoeing a cob" is great but I feel could be processed more to bring out the event hapening.
"Back on the road" looks a bit bright on my monitor
"Back on the road" just shows how those who refuse to conform are treated in today's society. great pic.

A wonderful set of photos, these and those in your other posts.
I particularly like the second photo. The worn hands and horse shoe portray a way of life, a partnership that has existed for years all over the world. Man and horse.
