Oliver Bishop , Stare of the Stallion (JUNIOR 2024)

This image beautifully captures an Australian brumby standing tall in a field of golden grasses, bathed in the warm glow of the late afternoon sun. The horse's dark, muscular coat contrasts with the soft tones of the surrounding landscape, and its mane catches the light as it gently sways. Its posture is both wild and graceful, embodying the untamed spirit of Australia's feral horses. The brumby gazes back over its shoulder, its eyes reflecting a sense of curiosity and strength, reminding us of its resilience and connection to the rugged Australian wilderness.
