This was shot in southern France. It is a stallion of the “Merens” breed of horse that is indigenous to the Pyrenees region of southern France. They are bred for riding and competition, but some also live “wild” in the Pyrenees mountains. They are pure black, muscular horses and the stallions typically have long manes with a slight reddish tint. This image captures the strength and spirit of this stallion.
