"Beyond The Pale" features a striking paint horse that I noticed in 1997, jumped out of my truck, and managed to get one photograph of before he turned and walked away. I was initially intrigued by the curious painted features of this horse - all natural, of course. This horse reminded me of the painted ponies found in old Indian paintings ... where the Indians used war paint to make them look fierce. After my photo was developed, I noticed this horse had a mixture of curiousity and fear in his eye, which I endeavored to capture.
