Description

A roan coated wild horse stands in the long grass of the plains of the American West.   On the horizon a line of clouds, illuminated orange by the evening sun, rolls across the sky.  In the distance, a bolt of lightning streaks down from that approaching front.  As if heralding the storm, a wind gusts across the prairie whipping the horse's mane and tail.

I made this work as a bit of an experiment in wider format, something that makes the viewer's eyes have to travel across the artwork.  Typically, my horizontally oriented compositions have a 1.6:1 aspect ratio (the Golden ratio).  This one, however, is much wider with a 2.66:1 ratio.  It's the same as what CinemaScope movies of the late 1950s and early 60s used.  I rather like the epic feel it lends to the scene.
