In the wilderness of the American Wild West, a woman in a fur lined winter coat with long leather boots walks through a dark, foggy forest. Standing next to her is her trusty companion, a horse with a dapple gray coat. A strange breeze suddenly blows through the trees lifting the woman's blonde hair and the horse's white mane and tail. With the strange wind, comes mysterious whispers out of the mists. The woman draws a bowie knife as both she and her horse search the woods.

From the artist: I actually have used the woman model in this image before in "The Howling of the Wind" (https://daniel-eskridge.pixels.com/featured/the-howling-of-the-wind-daniel-eskridge.html). Though, I changed the color of her hair. I guess I felt like I could do more with the character. I decided to go with a light colored horse for this scene to make the rest of the scene feel darker and more foreboding. All in all I also really like the way the lighting worked out in this one.
