A thoroughbred foal painting

I absolutely love foals. There is nothing in the world better than a sunny day, a green field and a bouncy Thoroughbred foal running circles around its mother. These are the kind of sights that make my heart miss a beat with love. It makes me want to capture each moment for eternity.

This little girl was having a great day out. She seemed to be racing her shadow. I was lucky enough to be there with my camera and after she had calmed a little, I captured a few snapshots and later created this foal painting from it.
