Horse, San Andres de Teixido, June 2018

June 20, 2018 in photographs

I saw hundreds of horses during my trip to Cedeira last week. But I hadn't been able to make a good image of one of them. Most were cautious enough to put distance between me and them as soon as I'd gotten within a few hundred meters of them.

On the last day, and already leaving the town of San Andres de Teixido, I saw this horse in the yard of a nearby house. It started neighing at me, but didn't go away when I approached it. The horse let me take a few portraits, staring at me all the time.

Only at the end I realized about the empty bucket next to it. It'd been asking me for food all this time.

I hope they fed it well that morning.
