While the pashmina goats grazing near the lake, this dark horse standing and watching them, it gives a unique feeling of being apart from the herd...standing alone for your dreams. Hope I could do that too, move on without following the herd...took this one in the plains of the village Karzok near Tsomoriri lake in Ladakh.

This is nicely stated Nishand. Nice shot of the independent horse overlooking the sheep and goats in the herd.

I like this a lot - and your narrative is very nice.
The blue seems a bit bright, and the horizon needs straightening, but this is a fine image.
