Photo a handful of southerly wind.. by silvia marmori

And God took a handful of southerly wind, blew His breath over it, and created the horse....
Thou shall fly without wings, and conquer without any sword. Oh, horse.
~Bedouin Legend

i tried to imagine this beautiful horse running free.. under that warm light...
but his glance, that silly fence, impressed me in more than one way..
i just captured his capture.. nothing more was i able to do..
