About the Photoshoot
It was a quiet morning when I came across this Icelandic horse standing at the entrance of its stable. The stable behind it was shrouded in darkness, while the bright daylight streamed in from outside, creating a natural contrast that instantly drew my attention. The horse stood still, its thick mane cascading over one side of its face, leaving only one eye visible. There was something profoundly emotive in that moment — as if the horse was revealing just enough to invite a connection while keeping part of itself hidden.
I decided to use the darkness of the stable as a backdrop to frame its elegant profile and emphasize the emotion in its gaze. Icelandic horses are known for their long, flowing manes, and in this instance, the wind gently teased its hair, adding a dynamic element to the stillness of the scene. With every click of the shutter, I felt I was capturing not just the physical beauty of the horse but its quiet strength and spirit. This photograph stands as a testament to the captivating essence of Icelandic horses, their grace, and their emotional depth.
About Icelandic Horses
Icelandic horses are a national treasure of Iceland, renowned for their strength, resilience, and unique beauty. Known for their long, flowing manes and gentle disposition, these horses are beloved symbols of the Icelandic landscape. They are one of the purest horse breeds in the world, thanks to Iceland’s strict breeding laws. Once an Icelandic horse leaves the country, it is not allowed to return, ensuring the breed remains untainted and true to its origins. Despite their small stature, Icelandic horses are powerful and versatile, boasting five natural gaits, including the smooth tölt. For centuries, they have been cherished companions in Iceland's history and culture.
