Horse

I have been wanting to go on campus and photograph a horse sculpture I've been driving past during the day. It was a dark rearing horse, still bound in plastic, and I just loved this strong image of bound and restrained power. I knew I didn't have long until they removed the plastic and my favorite thing about it would be gone. I've been meaning to go night after night, but it has been hard to force myself out in these frigid temps. I finally went out. I guess I hadn't seen the horse at night or they just now turned the eyes on, but now it has glowing red eyes. The Fred Jones Museum is my favorite spot on campus. I love the smooth light stone of the building and the pyramid tops to the buildings. It gives a really unique feel to the whole area.
