Tom, these are lovely!
The light is just right for them, nice detail with no glaring sun.
These looked healthier than
the critters I met back in the 1980's - but I notice they are equally
tame..
I still calls 'em ponies - not that they aren't horses in a broader
sense , of course. ;-)

I was going to debate whether these were ponies or horses. I guess
it's sort of like arguing over whether a lion can correctly be called
a cat or not. It seems that even the equine experts don't agree. The
people most closely associated with these horses often refer to them
as ponies, which differ from standard horses in a number of ways,
predominantly being smaller in stature. From what I read, if a foal
of one of these ponies is taken out of the harsh island habitat and
put out to a normal horse pasture and feeds on a normal horse diet,
they grow to the full stature of a horse.
I was happy I went and it was a fun trip. Of course no wild horse
running through the surf, especially not on a cold, blustery winter
day. Most of these look better if you double-click on the normal
sized image to enlarge it further.
