At the racetrack in Portland, Oregon.
Stabled, and wondering what all the yelling is that's coming from the people donating money to the racetrack.

Really strong portrait, though I would prefer not such a deep dark background here. The contrast is a bit high between the horse's blaze and the background.

Agree with Douglas on this one re contrast - good eye contact

Thanks Douglas and Bob.
The original (film) slide was very contrasty- mostly because on a bright and sunny day as it was here, very little light penetrated into the stall. And I exposed the film for the horse of course ().
The scan exacerbated the problem.
I might have been able to "create" something in those shadows during processing- but I only cheat like that when I think the cheating is worth it .
Here- I like the blackness of the shadows (Qué lástima).

One more suggestion. I would suggesting losing the enclosure, make it a simple portrait and see how it looks.

What a lovely countenance, but why the long face?
Sorry, had to do it.

Thanks Gene and MrChile.
Here's the "portrait" version as suggested.
Although I like this also, I'm a context guy more than a portrait guy, and prefer including the two edges of the stable.
