Thank you for another great podcast episode! I wish I had your horse photography talent. I could have used it when visiting the wild horse herd in the Little Bookcliff Mountains of Western Colorado back in 2015. I later wrote a blog post about my excursion, including some of my favorite wild horse photographs from the area (https://thebackyardhorseblog.com/2020/04/22/for-the-wild-ones/). I had wanted to see horses in the wild since I was a little girl and found the experience thrilling. I cherish the memories and the photographs. Your podcast episode brought it all back to me.
