A Horse is a Horse; Of Course, Of Course



Ever see the movie Nights in Rodanthe? Well, if not, let me give you a quick overview. A woman, Diane Lane, stays at her friend's beach house inn in Rodanthe, North Carolina, after her husband cheats on her. A retired doctor, Richard Gere, is the only other person staying at the inn.

I'll spare you the sappy details, but at one point in the movie, Diane Lane's character tells Richard Gere about the Spanish mustangs on the beaches north of Corolla and how on a very rare and special day, they will come as far down the beach as Rodanthe. These are the lovely horses she was talking about; however, not way down the coast in Rodanthe.

Today's PhotoHunt theme is Ripples. Camera Critters...well, you get the picture!

I like the one who's either playing/dying on his back.

Love all of the shots, but especially of the one of the horse on his back. There is just something wonderful about a back scratch!
