Best view in the world

First time I had these two pictures side by side, I was struck by how similar my two Bay Wonder Mares(tm) looked from the back. Same expression of the ears: listening, attentive and relaxed. The bright copper bay ears and neck belong to Isis. I took this picture when we were out on a trail ride around the farm’s perimeter.

Isis out on the trail. Best view in the world.

And then this picture, taken at the end of a ride on Kasane. Dark bay neck and ears plus the dark brown leather bridle with white stitching.

I feel so blessed to have had Isis in my life and now Kasane has taken over my world. Such a sweet little girl.
