22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Horse Whisperer

This image represents a documentation of horse lovers and their emotional bonds with the animals. The image was taken in Portugal of a girl and her beloved horse. It made me think of one of my favorite childhood movies, The Horse Whisperer, where there was a girl and her horse, and how they got through a traumatic event with patience, trust and healing. This can be reflected in many aspects of life and inspire others with such a bond. I think it's all something we can look up to. That's why I want to inspire others with my images, so they can identify and relate to the emotions there.
