Living in paradise.

Just a few weeks since birth, this little mustang lies contentedly in the warm spring sunshine. His mother grazes a few feet away.

After record rainfall in the past few months, the desert is covered in green grass and the mustangs are well-fed, lazy and happy.

Although this image looks like it was shot from very close range, it was taken from over 50 feet away with a long telephoto lens. I was sitting on the ground with my camera for over an hour and let the horses come close to me. It is important to me not to disrupt the horses from their normal living.

Thank you.
