The man on the horse? Perhaps he's Caesar - or Pontius Pilate? You get the feeling he'd be the 'baddie' in a film, don't you?The horse came from the village of Gorbio and in the smaller photo you see him waiting for his big moment. He wasn't tied up and left alone. His owner and a friend kept a very careful eye on him and made sure he was comfortable.

ReplyDeleteYep. they don't look very happy, and if you are a bad boy that's the correct look!
ReplyDeleteI can't pass up any post with a horse in it, even if it includes a "bad man!"

ReplyDeleteSo clever to capture that expression Jilly, agree he is the 'bad guy' but my isn't he handsome? (and knows it!)
ReplyDeleteI'm too busy howling over the guy in the highwaisted elf "dress"! That's hilarious.

LOL. Wow, looks like those two lost a bet or something!
ReplyDeleteThe guy in front looks like he raided the costume closet and came out with something in between Alexander the Great and Peter Pan!
The horse looks like as proud as two men! He's so gentle and handsom...?
